After the dental implant procedure is completed, healing properly is absolutely essential. Fortunately, all on 4 dental implants, and all on 6 dental implant treatments are pretty straightforward, which leave very little discomfort after the treatment. The thorough preparation beforehand by our experts, and our advanced medical technology make dental implant treatment a relatively minor surgical procedure. At Usmileturkey, when you receive a dental implant or a more complex oral surgery, we make sure that you receive the proper instructions following your treatment to ensure a comfortable healing process, with no pain after dental treatment.
What could be expected post dental implant treatment?
After the treatment, care of the mouth has a significant impact on healing. A certain amount of temporary discomfort might be experienced depending on the extent and location of the surgery. There is no cause for alarm however, since they can be minimized if the following post-operative instructions are followed carefully.
- A temporary and minor bleeding after dental implant is normal. You can apply pressure on the bleeding area by biting softly down on a gauze pad for about an hour.
- After implant treatment try to avoid rinsing your mouth and touching the surgical site with your tongue or fingers for a few hours.
- On the day of surgery, we advise you to avoid hot drinks, alcohol and spicy food. It is also important that you ensure that you stay hydrated.
- Smoking restricts the healing process dramatically. Nicotine reduces blood flow to the soft tissues, which has a negative impact on the immune response. This slows the process of healing and affects the long-term health of gum and bone. Smoking has a direct negative impact on the healing process of the implants, which may cause them to fail over time.
- It is advised that you restrict your physical activities on the day of implant, as physical exertion can encourage bleeding.
- The post dental treatment recovery process is much more comfortable when all on 4 implant or all on 6 implant techniques are applied. In contrast to standard dental implants, no additional surgeries are required that further complicate the healing process. On top of that, the simpler procedure of all on 4 and all on 6 dental implants guarantee a much shorter recovery process.
