Then it remains bad for a few days and then goes down. Much of it is because of the swelling of the tissue; but the pain in the bone can remain for a prolonged period.

Make sure you get in touch with the dentist who placed the implants for antibiotics if the intensity of pain gets worse....which can be an indication of infection.
