Recovery varies by procedure, but most involve some swelling, mild discomfort, and a few days of rest. Your dentist will provide aftercare instructions, such as eating soft foods, avoiding strenuous activity, and keeping the area clean. Following these guidelines helps you heal faster and avoid complications.
Most procedures are performed under local anesthesia or sedation, so you shouldn't feel pain during surgery. Some soreness afterward is normal and can usually be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relief. Your dentist will make sure you're comfortable throughout the process.
