Post-Op Instructions
Crown or Bridge Treatment

Final Restoration


  • Many crowns fit below the gum line which may have been irritated by the procedure; therefore, tenderness in this area may occur for a few days.  Sensitivity to cold or pressure is also possible.  Keep the area clean and free of plaque by  brushing gently in circular motions and gently flossing, unless otherwise instructed.
  • Ibuprofen (ie. Advil, Motrin) 400-800mg every 6 hours usually will provide sufficient pain relief.  Be sure to take this with food.  Additional medications will be prescribed if needed.
  • Your bite may feel different for a few days after your final restoration is cemented.  If it is uncomfortable, call for an appointment and a simple adjustment can be made.
  • To retain your final restoration, proper brushing, flossing, and dental visits are recommended.
