How long after a rhinoplasty is it safe to get dental work? Specifically a gum graft?

June 11, 2024
Asked By:lookingtolift in Chicago, Illinois

I need a gum graft and rhinoplasty. For insurance purposes, I want to get the rhinoplasty first. How long after the rhinoplasty should I wait to get the gum graft? I will likely also get a tooth cleaning + refill a cavity in my molar at the same time.
