What shaped this timeline

  • Single tooth implant: Most single implant sites feel manageable within a few days when no major grafting is needed.
  • No extra procedure expected: Your timeline is mostly driven by implant placement and your normal healing response.
  • Desk work or light routine: Many patients can return to light work quickly if swelling and medication side effects are controlled.
  • Typical soreness only: Mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness can be normal early on.

Next step

Follow your written post-op instructions and keep your scheduled follow-up.

What Arlington patients should plan for

First 48 hours

Rest, use cold compresses if recommended, take medications as directed, and avoid smoking, straws, and strenuous activity.

First week

Keep meals soft, protect the implant site, and call the office if pain, swelling, fever, or drainage gets worse instead of better.
