After surgery support

While your dressing is still on:

  • Take care of the abutment to avoid any complications with the surrounding tissue.
  • If the area has healed, the dressing and stitches will be removed 10-14 days after surgery.
  • If the area hasn't healed, the dressing may have to stay in place longer.

Once your dressing is removed:

  • Maintain good daily hygiene.
  • Wash your hair carefully for the first few weeks.
  • Use a strip of alcohol-free wet wipe to keep the skin around the abutment clean.
  • Follow daily and weekly cleaning instructions as outlined in the aftercare kit.
