I spoke with the oral surgeon. He's willing to remove the implant. Now the implant may not be the cause of the issues that I'm having, but taking it out would reduce the factors by one. But the sooner the better.
I think I might. I don't really need that 'tooth' (the reason for getting the implant in the first place), whatever he thinks. On the other hand, if the issue is the 'puff' at the end of the root canal, then the issues will continue, and I'll have to look at that tooth more closely. But, yeah, one less factor to consider.
Now I wish I'd contacted him six weeks ago. I just didn't figure he'd be willing to take it out.
