Cold sensitivity in dental implant
Hi doctors,
I sometimes feel cold sensitivity in my dental implant. Mostly when I gargle. My implant is nearly 4years old. Why could be the possible reasons for this? Does taking Augmentin 625 for two three days will help?

No need to take medicine and always avoid self medication. You may feel sensitivity in other tooth, but it appear as you feel in implant related area.
Kindly consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options, because proper history and Analysis is required to guide you.

it might be because of some other tooth which is being infected or carious near implanted tooth.. Or because of pockets created around the implant.. you need to clear the implant crown with interdental brush....
