Implant prosthetics sometimes represent a significant oral surgical procedure and post-surgery you may experience pain or discomfort which can be expertly managed with medication and antibiotics. To further assist your own personal recovery period, we would advise that you proceed to eat a diet of softer foods to minimise any pressure to chew excessively, as you heal comfortably.
Foods such as scrambled eggs, soup, porridge, yogurt or mashed potatoes are good examples of less solid and more liquid foods which can build up your strength, prevent infection and prevent any potential damage occurring to your newly fitted tooth restoration as it settles into your gums and your jawline.
Your dentist will be able to advise further about what to eat and drink pre and post treatment. They will also be able to advise on your current oral hygiene routine and highlight any potential foods or drinks that might cause tooth decay so that you can avoid future retreatment.
