In the first week after your implant is placed, you will be given an antibiotic to take and will rely mainly on over-the-counter pain medications like ibuprofen for any soreness that you may have. A temporary tooth may be placed on the implant at the time the implant is inserted or once it has healed. You can expect there to be minimal pain after implants are placed. You will be limited in what you eat and exercises you can do for one week post-operatively. After the implant is inserted, you need to wait 3-6 months for the bone to heal. Once healed impressions of the mouth are taken and a replacement tooth in the required size, shape and colour is built. When ready, the replacement tooth can then be tested before being securely fitted.
