I thought stripping an exhaust stud was bad but I just spun an impant in a guy's jaw. Never got near the spec of 30 Newton centimeters. The surgeon never put any load on it and when I talked to him about it he said he was wondering about that one. Asshole

Same sick feeling, the stud never gets tight. Same solution drill and tap for a larger implant.

Only good news is it doesn't hurt when it spins. Tough to explain though.

Major bummer, easier to explain to an aluminum head as opposed to a bleeding one. I feel for you. Had a surgeon said he bonded a bracket to an impacted canine, I drug the chain and bracket throught the bone for 3 months before the whole affair pulled through with no tooth attached. Major BUMMER. That is why we call it a practice, not perfect!!! Thats why we mess around with the fun stuff like 914's, helps to move on and go to the next day. Try a bigger implant if it will fit beween the roots of the adjacent teeth, if not there is always the old stand-by bridge. Good luck. Gary
