Single tooth implant recovery: what to expect during your stay in Brazil

Quick answer: after a single implant placed with guided surgery, most patients have mild discomfort for a few days, controlled with prescribed medication. Your flight home and the timing of the final crown are defined by Dr. Hugo Robertson according to your case.

First 24 to 48 hours

• Cold compresses to reduce swelling.
• Soft, cool foods.
• Avoid physical effort, alcohol and smoking.
• Follow the prescribed medication.

First week

• Gradual return to normal food, avoiding the implant side.
• Careful brushing around the area.
• Follow-up visit at the clinic.

When can I fly?

This is decided individually after your follow-up visit. Tell us your travel dates in advance so we can plan.

The final crown

The implant needs time to integrate with the bone. In some cases a crown can be placed sooner; in others, the final crown is planned for a later visit.
