What To Eat When Recovering From The All-on-4® Dental Procedure

If you are considering getting dental implants or have already had them, you may wonder what foods you can eat after the All-on-4® procedure.

This article will help you understand the foods and drinks to eat when recovering from All-on-4® with dental implants surgery.

What The Dental Surgery Involves

1.     The Consultation

This is the first step off any Ballarat dental surgery procedure. To make sure everything is done according to policy and ensure that you are comfortable during and after your treatment, you must communicate with your dentist. This helps the dentist make informed decisions about how to handle you.

2.     Examination and X-rays

Your dentist will take x-rays of your teeth to determine the problem and the best approach to the treatment.

3.     Treatment Plan and Care Advice

Depending on the type of procedure conducted, your dentist will recommend a treatment plan that will go in line with your schedule and needs. They will also advise you on the best foods and drinks to eat to facilitate quick recovery.

The Diet

The main thing you need to know is that you can eat almost anything considered average food before the surgery. A small amount of liquid is allowed to be drunk after midnight, and there is no alcohol consumption allowed before or during the procedure itself.

You should also avoid eating or drinking anything highly acidic, as these may increase the risk of having an allergic reaction while having dental implants placed in your mouth.

The following are the most recommended foods to eat before and after the dental implants surgery procedure.

●       Fruits

●       Pasta and rice

●       Nuts and seeds

●       Tofu and soy products

●       Grains and bread

●       Dairy products

●       Protein-rich types of meat, chicken, fish and eggs

●       Healthy fats such as olive oil, seeds and nuts

●       Sushi rolls

Essential Supplements

Your dentist generally recommends that you take one week to one month of supplemental calcium, magnesium, vitamin D3, and protein shakes before any dental procedure to help ease any discomfort you might feel during or after the procedure.
