Tips for Recovery
Doctor Recommended Instructions
These guidelines will not only help you to understand the healing process more in depth, but also outline key instructions regarding medications, activity limitations and dietary restrictions that may accompany the procedure.
• Resting is very important, slow movements and head elevation will help with symptoms
• Ice and ice packs can help minimize swelling and help with comfort
• Mouth Care is important after the procedure, follow all doctor provided instructions
• Eating soft fluid and drinking lots of fluids will help protect the implants and surrounding tissue
• Swelling, discomfort, and bruising may occur, both are part of the healing process
• We highly recommend refraining from smoking, as it can increase discomfort and add extra risks for infection and bleeding around the surgical site
