Day-To-Day With Implants: 3 Things That Pain Is Telling You

When you’re a happy wearer of dental implants but you wake up one day and experience pain, you might not know what it’s trying to tell you. However, it is definitely saying some very important things! Since this is likely new territory for you and since you probably really want to keep your smile safe and sound, take on some new and helpful information that our Conroe, TX team is pleased to provide. Always also keep in mind: When you’re unsure about something but you figure you might need our help, err on the side of seeking our dental care by scheduling a visit!

#1: Something Could Be Wrong

Think of pain as a messenger that your body sends you. When it arrives, it’s yelling out loud and clear that something could be wrong. Does that mean you’ll necessarily need dental care to fix a problem with your oral health? Does it mean your dental implant is definitely damaged? Nope. However, it does suggest that your smile isn’t in ideal condition and that you may need advice, improvement with your home care, or smile care in order to get back to your usual daily comfort. (Hint: Don’t worry! We are here to help you!).

#2: It’s Time To Contact Us

If pain is telling you that something is potentially wrong, then it’s also reminding you that you need to give us a call. Don’t forget about this key factor in figuring out what’s happening, if your dental implants are okay, and what to do next.

#3: Definitely Keep Up With Prevention

When you end up with any type of discomfort, it’s a reminder to you that what you want is for your dental implants to succeed. You may immediately think, “Oh no, please don’t let anything be wrong!” While we can most certainly address whatever is causing your pain, we remind you that this is often a good reset for you. Remember, if you aren’t already taking exceptional care of your smile, it’s time to get back on track. Don’t forget to brush your smile every day (twice a day), floss your smile every day, and schedule dental visits with our team twice a year. If questions come up, let us know. As a result, when you’re streamlining the care you offer your grin every day and throughout the year, you’re doing all that you can to minimize the potential development of any and all issues!
