When can I exercise after dental implant surgery?
Avoid resistance training for up to a week. Upper body exertion especially in horizontal posture creates pressure in the blood vessels of the head and neck that can increase swelling and cause you to clench your teeth. With commonly employed grafting techniques associated with implant surgery, you want everything skewed toward facilitating healing quickly. Light aerobic activity like walking for exercise, can resume the next day but best allows your body to rest for a few days and focus on nutrition to boost your healing capacity. Of course, you should follow all your doctor's advice first and foremost. Good luck! READ MORE
