When you’re considering
your options for replacing
lost teeth, dental implants may be among the most highly recommended
options you may take. Dental implants consist of a small titanium rod inserted
into the former tooth’s gap with a hole on top to be used as the locking joint
for an abutment and later a crown. While the benefits of dental implants will
be well worth the operation, you will still have to think about proper
recovery.
Time
In
The length of time mostly
depends on the number of implants you had installed and whether bone grafting
was required for the operation. In many cases, you may be looking at anywhere between
seven to ten days of downtime – you may have to take time off from work or
school. During this period, you can expect swelling and discolouration to
appear in the immediate area of the insertion.
Making
the Most of It
Many dentists recommend
that you pursue a soft diet during the recovery period, as well as ingest the
necessary medication. Lukewarm drinks can work as long as they are kept away
from the implantation.
