Does your insurance require a referral for oral surgery?
Many insurance policies donโt allow a patient to simply book an appointment with a specialist. Medical and dental insurance policies may refuse to cover treatment costs if their procedures are not followed correctly. To learn about our referral policies, call OCF today.
Weโre here to help: 956-627-3556. ๐
As wisdom tooth patients recover, they can begin to add semi-solid foods back into their diets. Hearty options such as these are filling and will put minimal stress on the mouth and gums:
* Oatmeal
* Mashed potatoes
* Scrambled egg
*Very soft pastas
* Finely cut meats and fish
Remember chewing near the extraction site should be avoided if possible, so as not to inflame the area. If food becomes lodged, it is important to rinse with warm salt water and avoid over-the-counter mouthwash.

Say bye-bye to cavities!๐
Dental implants are cavity resistant. Since they're made of titanium, dental implants cannot decay the way natural teeth do. However, it is important to practice good oral hygiene in order to protect the gums around the implant.
