I have an upper right tooth, the next to the last, that had a abcess the size of a dime when they pulled it.
the tooth had broken under a crown. My dentist tried to fix the abcess with synthetic bone, absorbable membrane and non-absorbable membrane. When the stitches were taken out 3 weeks later I still had a hole going up into my sinuses. An oral suugeon had tried twice to use membrane and fatty tissue, but to no avail. Last night the membrane came out even though the stitches are still intact. I will see him again sometime tomorow but what are the other options in fixing this? He had mentioned something about packing my sinuses with gauze until the hole heals. This has been going on over 2 months and it has just worn me down, I have lost about 20 pounds because I can't eat, all of the meds I take make me nauseated. Please tell me what are my options
