1. Observe the implant and the wound frequently, and report the problem to the doctor in time to solve it as soon as possible.
2. Reduce the movement of muscles around the operation area, and try not to laugh or talk frequently within three months after the operation, so as to prevent the wound tear caused by excessive movement of the cheek.
3. Do not brush the teeth in the operation area within 24 hours after dental implantation, so as not to stimulate the wound.
Pay attention to maintain oral hygiene, brush your teeth every morning and evening, and gargle with mouthwash several times after meals to prevent wound infection.
Brushing is one of the most effective methods for dental implant maintenance.
Choose a toothbrush with soft bristles and a rounded tip.
Choose a toothpaste that contains a soft rubbing agent.
When cleaning around the base pile of the implant, the action should be gentle, to avoid direct stimulation of the toothbrush, damage to the surrounding soft tissue.
4. On the day after dental implant surgery, patients should eat semi-liquid or full liquid food, eat soft food before suture removal, and do not use the teeth in the operating area to chew food.
Patients who implant teeth immediately after extraction should not chew hard food with implanted teeth within three months after operation.
Dental implants have incomparable advantages over traditional dentures in chewing function. Patients can use dental implants just like normal people use natural teeth, but they should not eat hard food continuously to prevent unnecessary trouble caused by metal fatigue.
5. Do a good job of daily cleaning of oral cavity and dental implants.
Poor oral hygiene can easily cause periimplantitis.
In addition to insisting on brushing your teeth every morning and evening and gargling after meals, special attention should also be paid to the hygiene of dental implants. The key part of cleaning is the neck of dental implants and the gingival tissue around them.
The adjacent surface of the implant can be cleaned with dental floss or an interdental cleaner. Periodontal massage can also be done under the guidance of a doctor.
