General Guidelines for All Procedures

Avoid hard or sticky foods — such as hard candies — for at least 24 hours after treatment, as chewing on these can loosen or damage a restoration. Never chew on ice. Carefully follow all guidelines provided by our office, and most importantly, practice good oral hygiene.

In the event of an emergency, please call our office. If you are experiencing a serious or life-threatening emergency, call 911 or visit the nearest emergency room.
