1. Avoid Eating Until Numbness Wears Off:

• First of all, wait until the anesthesia has completely worn off before eating. This is important to avoid accidentally biting your cheek, tongue, or lips.

2. Sensitivity:

• It is completely normal to experience some sensitivity to hot and cold. However, this should gradually decrease over the next few days to weeks. Moreover, using toothpaste for sensitive teeth can help ease the discomfort.

3. Chewing:

• To begin with, avoid chewing hard foods, ice, or other hard objects to prevent damaging your new crown.
• Additionally, try to chew on the opposite side of your mouth for the first 24 hours for added precaution.

4. Oral Hygiene:

• Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is essential. Therefore, brush twice a day and floss daily. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and be gentle around the crown area.
• Furthermore, consider using an antibacterial mouthwash to reduce the risk of infection and keep your mouth clean.
