All-On-4 Dental Implants: When Can I Go Back to the Gym?

Do you love going to the gym? I personally used to love going to the gym (one day I will go again!) and would be disappointed to know I can’t go to the gym after having a flu shot done. You may love going to the gym as well, but after having All-On-4 Dental Implant surgery done, you really should avoid going to the gym for at least 2 weeks.
You don’t want to inadvertently put pressure on the healing gum tissue, bone, implants, or your new smile. You may also raise your heart rate and start bleeding again, which will considerably slow down the healing process. The implant to bone bond actually gets weaker first and then strong, and the weakest point is 2 weeks after surgery. Please try to take it easy the first 2-3 weeks from any movement.
Once your implants start healing, you can resume lighter workouts at the gym. If you find yourself clenching or grinding your teeth while you work out, you should wear the mouthguards we provide at the gym to reduce pressure on the healing implants and teeth. And always try to ‘Keep the lips together and the teeth apart’.
In one day, you will have the smile you’ve always wanted, ready for friends, colleagues, and family to see, and we’re sure you will be in tip-top shape after the surgery in no time!

I am sorry that I am moving because I really had a great experience at Blooming Dental & Implant Center. Dr. Chang and his staff are very friendly and good! Everything is high tech and new, the suite looks modern and fresh. They also offered me a discount because I did not carry insurance and they have affordable dental plans as well. I am sad that I will not be able to go back again!

Best dental experience ever. Everyone is so friendly and they take you on time for your appointment, no waiting. Very modern and clean facility. Nice technology, you see your teeth xray and scan right away displayed on TV and see everything for yourself. They will also explain things and show you what they're talking about which is nice. A+

Dr. Kim and the entire staff are amazing ... I am the biggest baby when it comes to the dentist and they made me feel extremely comfortable. I can honestly say it was pain free. They were so understanding and gentle. I highly recommend them and won't go anywhere else.

The team at Blooming Dental & Implant Center are super friendly and professional. Very modern operations with sms and call based reminders as well as simple online booking. They were able to accommodate a last minute appointment and got me in and out within a very reasonable amount of time. Highly recommend!
