Thank you @colleenyoung. No, I didn’t do anything after my surgeries. I know that was not right to leave it just like that (without implant for example), but so far I’m fine. Maybe in the futureI will go for a modification.
As I mentioned before, I had no problem at all. The cyst just revealed during normal dental care with OPG.
So, I did not have any speech problem either.

Yes speech therapy has been very helpful, my surgeon reminds me though that until I’m in a final prosthesis it won’t be quite as effective.
