I had implant surgery. How do you clean your teeth 3 days after an implant?

If you've just had an implant placed, brush normally everywhere but the implant area. Use a very soft brush on the teeth on either side of implant and avoid touching that directly to prevent damage to the healing gums. Be careful, but don't be afraid of cleaning. Dr. Conrad
Hello! Is this a single implant or multiple implants?
Also, was an extraction done and implant placed immediately? Do you have bone graft and membrane?
The safest answer would be to brush your teeth normally, avoid the area of the course mola the placement and brush gentle around. Ideally an electric toothbrush that has a light which changes color when you are brushing too hard would do the job.
If your dentist did not prescribe Peridex, so gentle mouth wash with half water and half alcohol free mouthwash. If you see that debris are in the area, gently remove them. I hope this answer your question.
Good luck!
