If there is gum swelling;

It is normal to experience swelling in the gum. However, they should not be staying swollen. Also, it should not spread. If you see redness around the operated area, it may be an indication of an infection. You should see your dentist on the same day.

If you are experiencing trouble chewing;

The main goal of dental implant treatment is to provide one as functional as a natural one. Thus, you should not feel pain after your recovery when eating or chewing. Pain, in this context, can also be an indicator of a cavity in a natural tooth as well. If you do, it would be best for you to see your dentist.

Not stable implants;

After your dental implant treatment, your implants should have the same feeling as having a natural tooth. If you feel that the implant is not stable and it moves around, contact your dentist immediately.
