After placement

Follow the treating team’s instructions after placement. Tell the practice about bite discomfort rather than assuming it is an expected part of adjustment.

Your dental team’s advice comes first.

Experiences and care instructions vary. This guide cannot assess your health or tell you whether healing is progressing normally.

Questions for your dentist

When to contact the practice
