Also if anyone from realself is reading this, can we please get a Jaw Implant category? Its hard to find info on here and I didnt know which section to post this in

Hi, 
The recovery timeline for a jaw implant does vary from patient to patient. It depends on several factors, including the extent of the procedure, individual healing capacity, and adherence to post-operative care instructions.
In the second week, most patients start to feel better, and the swelling and bruising begin to subside. By the third week, most patients can return to their daily activities.
It is important to recognize that no two patients are alike, and individual healing abilities may differ significantly. Additionally, the implant itself may affect the healing process if it is not appropriately positioned or shaped to perfectly fit the patient's anatomy. In such cases, complications may arise, leading to a prolonged recovery period.
