I had my rhinoplasty on Tuesday the 26th. I've been brushing my teeth with my sonicare toothbrush. I also have been flossing. My concern is that either the vibrations from the electric toothbrush or the movements that occur in and around the mouth with flossing will in some disrupt my healing. I had an open rhinoplasty with osteotomies and cartilage grafts near my tip. Can flossing and brushing my teeth in any way impact my results and/or dislodge my cartilage grafts?
