Briefly...

So I met with my oral surgeon yesterday and got the final ok that we can go through with the surgery!!!!!

Buttttt he's going to be on vacation all during spring break, which means i'm going to have his partner do my bone graft on Monday March 15th at 9:45 am. I don't like his partner as much but I need to keep this on schedule. And good news: i'll be sedated!!! That sounds silly but they'll be taking bone from my chin and putting it up top sooooo sedation is optimal. Depending on my healing they might use like this freeze dried/liquid bone stuff. (i don't remember what it's called) but they aren't sure how it would heal and then hold the implant. The healing of that procedure will take about 4-6 months and then the screw would be put in for the implant and then about 3-5 months later i would get my half tooth extracted and get my permanent teeth screwed in.

excited?? yes... :]
