I was wrong, my consultation with the oral surgeon was not until today. He did a CT scan. He said everything looked good but tooth # 3. He showed me the tooth had three roots and the areas of infection visible. He explained about the possibility of sinus communication and said it often heals without treatment. The plan is to extract the tooth removing any fragments if it breaks. He will scrape the area removing areas of infection. He thinks he can do an immediate implant base surrounded by bone graft powder. I think he said there was about 9 cm of bone that looked good. I think he said there may be dissolving stitches. He prescribed amoxicillin 500 mg and peridex oral rinse starting one day before and continuing after. I have not scheduled a date yet. Does this sound like a good plan?
