I can freak out about stuff like this but it’s most likely fine.
Don’t give yourself another thing to stress about. Try to break the cycle.

I'm going to say "no way" could a bite that didn't even draw blood rupture a silicone breast implant.
Ruptures are caused by a huge blunt force trauma (where the implant rupture would probably be the least of your issues), or aging in place.

I totally agree with Robin but I guess it depends on how old your implants are. If they are extremely old, I guess there is a chance of a rupture happening. I had not 1 but 2 sets of implants ruptured by my yearly mammogram, but they were saline over the muscle both times. Of course you could tell right away as they deflated. Maybellineo

Thank you everyone for responding . My implants are 8 years old. Silicone under muscle. My son is 6 . The dr is away anyhow and not sure it’s an emergency so I will see what it looks like on Monday . It hurts a bit just I think from the bite. He constantly bites my arms and legs . Now I need to be careful when I’m leaning over him .

It doesn't sound like he could have ruptured the implant from the bite though. |

OMG! That's terrible. Insist on ultra sound next time. Originally Posted by: maybellineo I totally agree with Robin but I guess it depends on how old your implants are.

I wouldn't have the funds to do that. So, I don't do the 'squash my implants' mammogram. Got other health issues like arthritis to fret about. Originally Posted by: maybellineo Yep, it cost me $5000 both times to replace. |

Yes, they sometimes do an ultrasound too if the radiologist has trouble reading the mammogram. I have very dense breast tissue and also tons of scar tissue from previous breast surgeries. This year they are trying to get me to pay extra for 3 D. But why they don't skip directly to the ultrasound is beyond me.
