Dental work after Rhinoplasty?

Question

I am wondering down the road after rhinoplasty , if/when I need to have some new front dental crowns replaced, how careful or cautious do I need to be? I know when I had them removed before a lot of pressure and pulling. The last thing if want us to be bumped in my nose. Any thoughts appreciated.

You should not have anything to worry about.  Once your surgeon gives you a full release after surgery you should be able to have dental procedures performed.

Generally any dental work including work on the front teeth should be avoided after immediate surgery till the recovery period is finished. Your surgeon should be able to determine your recover period, and once that period of time which usually is a few weeks is over you may seek any dental treatment that which may be necessary. Best of luck.

That is a great question for your surgeon.  I doubt there is any significant restriction in having dental work.  Talk to your surgeon and inform your dentist and I am sure you can work out a good arrangement.  Good luck!
