It is common to experience some discomfort or soreness following dental implant surgery, but severe or persistent pain is not normal and should be evaluated by your dentist or oral surgeon.
After the procedure, you may feel some discomfort and mild to moderate pain, as well as swelling and bruising in the area around the implant site. This is normal and can be managed with pain medication and anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen. Applying ice packs to the affected area can also help to reduce swelling and discomfort.
In addition to these temporary symptoms, some people may experience longer-lasting discomfort or sensitivity around the implant, especially if the implant is not properly integrated into the jawbone. This can be caused by a variety of factors, such as poor placement or infection, and may require further treatment. It is important to follow your dentist's instructions for aftercare and to attend regular check-ups to ensure that the implant is healing properly and that any issues are identified and treated early.
