Tooth 10 extracted two months ago following two attempts to save original tooth (external resorbtion). Roof of mouth lumpy since first bone graft/surgery. Salty discharge. Periodontist said that extraction would resolve this issue. Unfortunately, 2+ months following extraction the roof of mouth still inflamed with salty discharge. Periodontist says healing looks good, but swelling and discharge make me feel uneasy. It feels like something is still wrong.

Is it normal to take so long to heal? What could be causing this?

Received the implant 10 days ago. Hard palate was feeling better for a few days after the implant (perhaps due to Novocain?). Now experiencing inflammation again. Color is light pink (similar to photo above), not angry-red.

When walking (even slowly), I feel a pulsing sensation in the implant area.

Are these signs of a failed implant, or something else?
