Dental Implants must be cared for to ensure long term success. Follow some of these tips for best results:
- If an anesthetic was used to perform your procedure, try not to chew any food or
gum until the numbness has ended
- Avoid hard foods that will cause you to grind
- If you grind your teeth at night, let us know to discuss wearing a nightguard
- Resume your brushing and flossing routine, but be gentle. We may recommend a water pick, interproximal brush or specialty floss
- Make sure to visit us for professional cleanings on a regular basis (usually every 3-6 months)
If you have any increase in bleeding or pain or other unusual issues, feel free to call us. However, it is normal to feel some pain and discomfort for a few days after the procedure.
