After dental implant surgery, it is recommended that you take it easy for at least 48 to 72 hours. Resting helps the healing process and limits post-surgery bleeding. Drink plenty of fluids, but nothing too cold. You may apply an ice pack to your face in 20-minute intervals for pain for two days following surgery. If you received upper implants, do not blow your nose for two weeks. It is common to experience minor bleeding for two to three days following surgery. You may be uncomfortable for the first two days following surgery, but you should start feeling better by the third day. You may experience a small fever but it is a normal symptom and is not a cause for concern. Finally, you can eat when hungry but do not chew on the side of the bone graft.
