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.
