Post-Operative Instructions: Full-Arch Restoration

Pain Management: Discomfort starts as numbness wears off a few hours after surgery. Discomfort often peaks 2-3 days after full arch implant surgery. It is important to take any recommended pain relievers before the numbness wears off to ensure a comfortable transition into recovery. Use the provided pain reliever as directed. As discomfort subsides, you can transition away from prescription pain relievers to taking both ibuprofen and Tylenol, either together or alternating, for mild to moderate pain relief.
