Can we do implant with constant jaw pain
I have had pain for 3 years now. Started suddenly one day as mild swelling in lower jaw under the ear lobe where the j mandible aw line ends and pain constantly there and ear pain. I have seen ENT, GP and no issues on ear. Then saw the dentist and xrays were clear. He tapped on all teeth and tooth#46 was hurting for biting pressure and tapping. Like sensitive pressure pain and I was just jerking while biting on that tooth. Taken a CBCT,he said it looks ok. Sent me to Endo. He said tooth is alive but sensitive for tapping and biting. So they did exploratory root canal in 2020 which I totally regret now. He said he pain because of#46. Did root canal and checked thru microscope. No changes. No changes. Sane symptoms persist with jaw pain. Did crown. No relief. Did several retreatments RCT on that tooth and no changes. Seen Neuro,OMFS,TMJ Dr. No diagnosis given.Ended up pulling 46 in 2022 July. No changes yet. Have same jaw pain and pain in socket gums. Can we do implant with this pain?

Hello. Did you have any history of trauma or fall before the pain started? What kind of pain are you having? Does it aggravate or reduce due to any particular factor. There are lots of things to be taken care of to encounter a diagnosis. Please do visit another OMFS for second opinion and there is a small root stump of 48. Please do get that removed.
