is there pain during dental implant healing peroid
Q. hello I am wondering if dental implants hurt when you have had them done i saw the video on a website and a man was drilling a hole in the mouth does this hurt when its healing and can i eat after dental implants or do i need to go a few days with no food?
A. There should be no pain during the procedure and only mild discomfort afterwards. This is controlled for the few days with normal painkillers. You can eat afterwards but we recommend a soft diet for a minimum of 2 weeks.
