Post-Operative Care at Titanium Surgical Arts

It's normal to experience some swelling, mild discomfort, and limited jaw movement in the days following your procedure. These are expected parts of the healing process and improve progressively. Rest, follow your prescribed medications, and avoid physical exertion during the first week.

Soft foods and gentle oral hygiene are essential during your recovery. Our team will guide you on what to eat and how to care for your surgical sites at each stage of healing — instructions vary depending on the procedure performed.

More involved procedures — including dental implants, bone grafting, and full-arch restorations — require a carefully phased recovery. Healing timelines vary significantly from patient to patient. Our team will walk you through each stage and adjust your care instructions as you progress.

Contact our office if you experience excessive bleeding, persistent swelling, signs of infection, or pain that isn't controlled with your prescribed medications. For urgent concerns outside office hours, call or text our on-call line at (713) 206-7876. For medical emergencies, call 911.
