Post-Op Care for Your Dental Implant – Dr. Nita Kalambe
Getting a dental implant is a major step toward restoring your smile and chewing ability. At Shree Dental Care & Implant Center, Dr. Nita Kalambe ensures that your implant surgery is safe, comfortable, and successful.
However, your role in aftercare is equally important to ensure proper healing and long-lasting results.

-
Avoid hot, spicy, crunchy, or hard foods until healing improves
5. Oral Hygiene

Continue brushing other teeth carefully but avoid the surgical site for the first week
-
Use a prescribed mouth rinse after 24 hours to keep the area clean
6. Rest & Recovery
