A dental bone graft is still healing well beyond the first week. Initial recovery often takes about a week, while the graft itself can need several months to fully heal. So feeling better doesn’t mean the area is finished healing.<\/p>\r\n
Usually, yes. If your dentist or oral surgeon hasn’t given you a different restriction, tea at a lukewarm or comfortable temperature is generally a reasonable choice after the first week.<\/p>\r\n
