Orange or grapefruit juice can sting the healing tissue, and honestly, I&#8217;d wait longer if your gums still feel sensitive.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 Fresh juice without added sugar is my preference here, though the important part is how your mouth feels after drinking it.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 Skip anything extremely cold or hot if the surgical area is still tender. Room temperature is boring, but boring works.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Should You Use a Straw?<\/h3>\r\n<p>I&#8217;d avoid the straw for now unless your dentist specifically says it&#8217;s fine. The suction created while drinking through a straw can place unnecessary stress around a healing surgical site, and there&#8217;s really no prize for taking that chance when drinking from a normal glass is easy.<\/p>\r\n<h2>What About Acidic Juice?<\/h2>\r\n<p>This is where people sometimes get caught out. A juice can be perfectly healthy and still be annoying to a healing mouth. Pineapple juice and orange juice are acidic, so they can cause a burning or tingling feeling around the gums.<\/p>\r\n<h2>When Should You Still Be Careful?<\/h2>\r\n<p>If your dentist gave you specific dietary instructions, follow those over general advice online. They know what was done during your procedure and how your healing looks.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 Persistent bleeding isn&#8217;t something to ignore, especially if it starts after drinking or eating.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 New swelling or worsening pain after things had been settling down deserves a call to your dentist.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u2022 A juice that burns the surgical area is probably worth putting back in the fridge for a while.<\/p>\r\n<p>After one week, juice is usually back on the menu. Just don&#8217;t turn it into a mouthwash, don&#8217;t reach for the most acidic option if your gums are still sore, and give your mouth a little respect while the implant keeps doing its quiet work underneath.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Dental Implant Services in Popular Locations<\/h2>\r\n<div class=\"location-grid\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-isleworth\"> Dental Implants in Isleworth <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-brentford\"> Dental Implants in Brentford <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-ealing\"> Dental Implants in Ealing <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-feltham\"> Dental Implants in Feltham <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-hounslow\"> Dental Implants in Hounslow <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-richmond\"> Dental Implants in Richmond <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-southall\"> Dental Implants in Southall <\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bridgedentalcosmetic.co.uk\/dental-implants-twickenham\"> Dental Implants in Twickenham <\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Juice Is Better After One Week? \u2022 Apple juice is generally gentle enough, especially when it&#8217;s diluted and served cool rather than ice-cold. \u2022 Citrus juice deserves a little caution.
