This means you should be\u00a0brushing and flossing your teeth at least twice a day. Regular dental check-ups are also important. Foods that are sugary, sticky, or hard can negatively affect the lifespan of your implant.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-stay-healthy-before-and-after-dental-implant-surgery\">Stay healthy before and after dental implant surgery.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The better your health is before you have implants,, the lower your risk of having complications is going to be. Make sure you are eating healthy, exercising regularly, and get enough sleep. You should also be looking after your general health along with the decision to go for the surgery. Make sure you are up to date with any vaccinations you need, know your blood type, and have been tested for any STDs or blood-borne diseases.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30007\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Eat-what-you-want-e1660127466800-900x504.png\" alt=\"Eat what you want with Good Teeth\" width=\"479\" height=\"267\" title=\"\">\r\n<figcaption>Dental Implant Care<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over-the-counter pain medications are usually adequate for alleviating any discomfort. On average, the healing time for a dental implant is about\u00a02-5 days depending on the treatment. It&#8217;s normal to bleed after dental implant surgery\u00a0because your gums have just been opened and your jawbone has been drilled into to place the titanium post in the jawbone. Slight oozing of blood at the site of the implant can last for up to 24 hours.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-don-t-smoke-or-wear-false-eyelashes\">Don&#8217;t smoke or wear false eyelashes.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Smoking can increase your risk of complications and lead to infections, not to mention that it\u2019s not great for your health in general. And false eyelashes are known to be a risk factor for implant infections. So if you are not 100% sure that your dental implant surgery will be sufficient, it\u2019s better to avoid both to minimize the risk. The best way to minimise your risk of complications is to be careful about what you put on your body, and how you take care of yourself. This includes keeping your nails short, avoiding piercings, and taking good care of your skin.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3216\" src=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Smoking-and-Oral-Health-e1628065870285.jpg\" alt=\"Smoking does to implant\" width=\"436\" height=\"215\" title=\"\">\r\n<figcaption>smoke after extraction<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-be-careful-with-exercise-after-dental-implant\">Be careful with exercise after dental implant<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exercise is fantastic for your health and your mental well-being, but implant patients need to be careful about how much exercise they do. You should avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, or any other activity that puts too much strain on your body. While it is important to listen to your body, you also want to be careful not to let your implants get squished or have them move around too much when you are lifting or exercising.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\r\n<p><div class=\"atbssuga-responsive-video\"><iframe title=\"One-Day Dental Implants Explained | Dr Chirag Chamria | Expert Insights into Dentistry | Best Dental\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YbV0naD0ePc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-don-t-use-certain-shampoos-and-shower-gels\">Don&#8217;t use certain shampoos and shower gels.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is recommended that you avoid using shampoos and shower gels that are really harsh on your skin. Stay away from products that contain alcohol, which can cause your skin to dry out, and sulfates, which are often found in shampoos, soaps, and other cleaning products and can irritate your implants and surrounding tissues. If you have a choice, it is a good idea to use products that are labeled \u201cdermatologist approved\u201d and \u201cfor sensitive skin\u201d, especially if you have sensitive skin or are worried about your dental implants.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-7d812b4c wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background\" style=\"border-radius: 2px; background-color: #ba0c49; color: #fffffa;\" href=\"tel:00919820446633\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Call Now<\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--2\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color\" style=\"border-radius: 2px; color: #ba0c49;\" href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/enquiry5\/?utm_source=blogs&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=5%20foods%20that%20make%20your%20kids%20teeth%20stronger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get In Touch<\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The risks and complications you are taking for dental implants include\u00a0infection, damage to other teeth, delayed bone healing, nerve damage, prolonged bleeding, jaw fractures\u00a0and more. Strictly speaking,\u00a0your body can reject a dental implant. But, the good news is that it is very rare. Dental implants are the most adaptable and durable replacement for teeth roots, with up to 98% of the success rate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-check-up-with-your-doctor-regularly\">Check up with your <a href=\"http:\/\/chiragchamria.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">doctor<\/a> regularly.<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should schedule regular check-ups with your surgeon after your surgery. The amount of time depends on your specific situation, but it\u2019s a good idea to try to make time to see your doctor at least every six months. During your check-ups, your surgeon will make sure your implants are in their correct position, check to see that your healing is proceeding properly, and make any necessary adjustments. They will also be able to give you advice on how to care for your implants and minimize your risk of complications.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\r\n<p><div class=\"atbssuga-responsive-video\"><iframe title=\"Dental Implants after 50 | Advancement in Dentistry | Dr Chirag Chamria\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/v8zlXQlM2bE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<figcaption>Dental implants care after 50!<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-qubely-map qubely-block-099e01\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?q=Royal%20Dental%20Clinic%20%7C%20Same%20Day%20Dental%20Implant%20%26%20Cosmetic%20Treatment%2C%20Kandivali%20Thakur%20Complex%2C%20V%20Mall%2C%20Western%20Express%20Hwy%2C%20Kandivali%20East%2C%20Mumbai%2C%20Maharashtra%20400101&amp;t=&amp;z=16&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;iwloc=&amp;output=embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"350px\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Suggested Article \u2013<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/pros-and-cons-of-full-mouth-dental-implants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pros and Cons of Full Mouth Dental Implants<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/difference-between-crowns-and-dental-implants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Difference between Crowns and Dental Implants?<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/who-is-the-best-dental-implant-specialist-in-delhi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Who is the Best Dental Implant specialist in Delhi?<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/royalimplant.com\/blogs\/are-dental-implants-better-than-alternates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Are dental implants better than alternates?<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you get implants, you are making an investment in yourself.
