If you grind at night, consider wearing a custom night guard. 4 BE MINDFUL OF YOUR DIET Eat a balanced diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein to strengthen your jawbone and support implant health. Avoid overly sticky or tough foods that put stress on implant crowns, especially after surgery. www.oralsurgerydc.com

Reducing these habits benefits both oral and overall health. ADDRESS DENTAL ISSUES PROMPTLY 6 If you notice pain, swelling, changes in your bite, or a loose crown, contact your dentist immediately.
