CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS FOR PORCELAIN VENEER, PORCELAIN CROWN, CROWN ON IMPLANT WARRANTY

Dos

Don’ts

  • Have dental check-up and cleaning at Worldwide hospital or at your local dentist every 6 months. Notify your dentist about your crown/veneer. Please send us your dental report for our record ([email protected]).
  • Follow our home care instructions (below).
  • Use night mouth guard if you have teeth grinding.
  • Don’t grind your teeth.
  • Don’t eat food that is hard, too hot, too chewy or too sticky.
  • Don’t drink or eat too hot and too cold liquid/food at the same time.

DENTAL WARRANTY WILL BE REDUCED OR VOIDED FOR:

  • Prosthesis is chipped, cracked or broken from accident
  • Patients don’t follow the dos and don’ts above
  • Patients don’t follow doctor’s home care instructions
  • Prothesis is affected due to problems with natural tooth, caused by dental disease (such as gum disease).

CROWN AND VENEER HOME CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Protecting your crown or veneers is simple if you follow certain guidelines, ensuring that your restoration will last for years.

  • Do not rip or tear with your teeth, such as biting nails or opening bags
  • Avoid biting on ice, nuts and other hard food/material
  • Avoid movement that twists or pulls veneers away from the natural part of the tooth
  • If you grind your teeth, wear mouth guard every night
  • Floss and brush at least twice a day (ideally after each meal)
  • Most all crowns and bridges have a ceramic outer layer or are all-ceramic. These materials are very strong, however they still have potential to fracture the same as a natural tooth. As a rule of thumb, don’t do anything with a crown or bridge that could damage a natural tooth. 
  • Dental bridges require additional cleaning under the pontic (Missing tooth). Since this pontic is connected to the adjacent teeth, a special threader floss or water flosser should be used to remove plaque and food under the bridge. These are readily available at most pharmacies.  
  • Visit your dentist for check-up and cleaning every six months (please send us record of these visits so we have it for our file). To maintain long lasting results, it’s best that you come back for check-up and Xray at our hospital once every few years as we have the right tools and technology for proper check-up and cleaning.  

Once dental implants have completely healed and integrated with your jawbone, they can function like real teeth, allowing you to enjoy all of your favorite foods. However, it is important to follow the correct diet right after the surgery for a speedy recovery.

FOODS TO AVOID AFTER DENTAL IMPLANT SURGERY

  • Crunchy foods, such as chips and popcorn
  • Tough foods, such as some hard fruits and vegetables
  • Chewy foods, such as bagels, gummies, chewy meat
  • Sticky foods, such as taffy, caramel, chewing gum
  • Acidic foods, such soda, certain process food
  • Spicy foods
  • Very hot foods and drinks

FOOD TO EAT WITHIN 2 WEEKS AFTER DENTAL IMPLANTS

For best comfort and high protein food that can help speed up the recovery process, we recommend an almost liquid food diet for the first 2 weeks after surgery:

  • Smoothies, but keep it natural, avoid adding too much sugar. Avocado smoothie is delicious and high in protein
  • Nutritious soups that are only warm or at room temperature, such as tomato soup, pumpkin soup, porridge with finely minced meat
  • Baby food, such as applesauce, any type of puree
  • Other cool liquid foods, such as fruit juices and nectars, pudding and Jell-O, milk and milkshakes.

WHAT TO EAT IN THE WEEKS AFTER IMPLANT SURGERY: SOFT-FOOD DIET

After the first 2 weeks, you have more choices but should still follow a soft food diet until the 3 months mark. During this time, your dental implants will integrate with the jawbone, and you might be wearing a temporary prosthesis, which is mostly for aesthetic and not meant to be used to chew crunchy or hard foods. We recommend the following high protein foods:

  • Eggs, For a well-balanced meal, you can mix them with finely chopped vegetables and make an omelet
  • Milk, yogurt, and cheese 
  • Well cooked vegetables
  • Fish, chicken, and ground beef, finely chop them to add to salads or pasta
  • Other soft foods. Feel free to indulge in soft fruits like bananas or peaches, eat steamed vegetables, soft bread, pasta, oatmeal, and more.
