- During the healing phase immediately after surgery, it is important that the implant site is free of pressure. The surgeon will provide you specific instructions regarding your care during healing.
- Whether you have a prototype provisional crown, permanent crown, or removable prosthesis, the implant should be cleaned daily. As with natural teeth, adequate removal of plaque is necessary to maintain the health of the gum and bone around the implant. Daily use of soft toothbrushes, floss and floss aides are recommended. We are always happy to show you how to care for the implants.
- If you are experiencing a high bite or any discomfort at the implant, please let us know immediately.
- Friday through Sunday, please call and leave a voicemail so we can return your call promptly. Text messages are read on Monday.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the office at (847) 441-6510.
