Postoperatory Instructions: Crown & Bridge, Crowns, Inlays, or Onlays

You will wear temporary restorations until your permanent restoration is made.
If your temporary falls off or breaks, save the pieces and call our office. Do not bite your lips, cheeks, or scrape your gums. Children should be watched carefully to make sure they don’t do this. It will damage soft tissues and result in pain.
Sensitivity to cold and heat, as well as any soreness, should go away in a few days.
Brush gently and floss carefully for the first few days.
