Frequently Asked Questions
.avif)
How painful is oral surgery, and how long is recovery?
Most patients are surprised to find that oral surgery is less uncomfortable than they expected. We use effective local anesthesia to ensure you're comfortable during the procedure, and many surgeries can be completed in under an hour. Recovery varies by procedure: simple extractions may only require 2-3 days of healing, while implant placement typically needs 7-10 days before you feel back to normal. We'll provide detailed aftercare instructions and appropriate pain management options to keep you comfortable throughout the healing process.
How do I know if I'm a good candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with good general health are candidates for dental implants. The main requirements are adequate jawbone density to support the implant and healthy gum tissue. If you've experienced bone loss, procedures like bone grafting can help prepare your jaw for successful implant placement. During your consultation, Dr. Daniel will evaluate your oral health, medical history, and jawbone structure using our advanced imaging technology to determine if implants are right for you. Even patients with certain health conditions like controlled diabetes can often receive implants with proper planning and care.
What should I eat after oral surgery?
For the first 24-48 hours after surgery, stick to cool, soft foods that require minimal chewing, such as yogurt, smoothies, applesauce, mashed potatoes, and ice cream. As healing progresses, you can gradually incorporate foods that require more chewing, like pasta, eggs, and soft-cooked vegetables. Avoid very hot foods, hard or crunchy items, spicy dishes, and drinking through straws during the initial healing period. Staying well-hydrated is important, but avoid alcoholic beverages while taking any prescribed pain medications. We'll provide you with a personalized list of dietary recommendations based on your specific procedure.
