Besides dairy, what else should you avoid after dental implants?
Why can’t you eat dairy after dental implants?

Dairy products are healthier in terms of nutrition and protein. No one here doubts that drinking milk is a bad choice for recovery, but to ensure healthy teeth after surgery, you must avoid dairy products due to the risk of infection and blood clotting.
Risk of infection – After consuming dairy products, there is a risk of infection due to bacterial growth. Dairy products, especially when left at room temperature, can serve as a breeding ground for harmful bacteria. The same thing can happen in your mouth after surgery, which can compromise the healing process and increase the risk of infection. Therefore, dairy products must be avoided after dental implants.
Blood clotting – While chewing is generally discouraged after implant surgery to prevent unnecessary pressure on the implant site, even softer dairy products such as yogurt or ice cream can interfere with the implant, so to prevent blood clotting, you must avoid dairy products after dental implants.
Let's now explore which foods to avoid after dental implants, besides dairy.
