Failed bone grafts

Page 1

Dr. Atcha, It has been ONE YEAR next month that I went to the University of Illinois and had my second failed bone graft. The infection is STILL in my mouth. In fact now they think it maybe my nose is draining in my mouth! I continue to go in and get medications and now they are doing nitrate silver oxide in hopes of the fistula closing up! I was told today that it is possible that I don't have enough bone in the front to put in 4 screws needed to do a zygomatic implant. I was told I will probably have to live will ill fitting dentures. Is there any hope for me?
