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.
What to Expect After a Dental Implant
-
Mild swelling and discomfort for 2–3 days
-
Small amount of bleeding for the first 24 hours
-
Gradual improvement in comfort over the first week
Post-Operative Care Instructions
1. Manage Bleeding
-
Bite on gauze for 30–45 minutes immediately after surgery
-
If bleeding continues, replace with fresh gauze and bite gently
2. Reduce Swelling & Pain
-
Apply an ice pack to the outside of your face for 15 minutes at a time during the first 24 hours
-
Take prescribed painkillers and antibiotics exactly as directed
3. Protect the Implant Site
-
Avoid touching the implant area with your tongue or fingers
-
Do not smoke or use straws for at least 72 hours
4. Eating & Drinking
-
Eat soft foods like yogurt, soup, khichdi, mashed potatoes, and smoothies for the first few days
-
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
-
Avoid heavy physical activity for the first 48 hours
-
Keep your head elevated when resting to reduce swelling
Follow-Up Appointments
Regular follow-ups allow Dr. Nita Kalambe to check healing and ensure the implant is integrating with the bone (osseointegration). Skipping follow-ups may delay your treatment progress.
