How long does it take for Guangdong Provincial Stomatological Hospital to restore normal diet?
Guangdong Provincial Stomatological Hospital is a hospital specializing in oral plastic surgery. Bone grinding is one of its common operations. Many patients are very concerned about the time to return to normal diet after bone grinding surgery. The following will be detailed from four aspects: postoperative dietary restrictions, dietary recovery time, dietary adjustment and dietary recommendations.
1. Postoperative dietary restrictions
After bone grinding surgery, patients need to follow certain dietary restrictions to ensure the surgical effect and recovery process. First of all, a liquid or semi liquid diet should be given priority to in a few days after the operation to avoid eating too hard or overheated food. Secondly, avoid eating spicy and irritant food, such as pepper, ginger, etc., so as not to affect the wound healing. In addition, patients should also avoid eating foods that are likely to cause chewing difficulties, such as hard fruits, beef, etc. The specific time and content of dietary restriction shall be determined according to the doctor's suggestions.
Postoperative dietary restriction is beneficial to wound healing and recovery of surgical effect, but it also increases the patients' dietary problems. Therefore, patients need to pay attention to reasonable diet to ensure adequate nutrition intake.
2. Diet recovery time
The recovery time of diet after bone grinding surgery varies according to individual differences. Generally, it takes about one month to recover the normal diet. Within a few days after the operation, the patient needs to stay in the hospital to observe the recovery and take adaptive diet. As time goes by, the wound gradually heals and the patient can gradually start to return to normal diet. However, the specific recovery time still depends on the doctor's advice and the patient's personal situation.
It is worth noting that the recovery time of diet only refers to the time when people can eat normally, and it does not represent the complete recovery of the oral cavity. The patient still needs to chew carefully during the recovery of diet, and pay attention to keeping the oral cavity clean to avoid infection.
3. Diet adjustment
During the recovery period after bone grinding surgery, patients need to make certain dietary adjustments to adapt to changes in the oral cavity. First, patients should choose soft and glutinous foods that are easy to chew, such as rice, noodles, tofu, etc. Secondly, avoid eating foods that are too spicy, too sour or too sweet to stimulate the mouth and cause discomfort. In addition, patients should also strengthen the intake of liquid, vitamins, proteins and other nutrients to promote wound healing.
The diet adjustment needs to be carried out according to the patient's personal conditions. The patient can consult the doctor or nutritionist to develop a diet plan suitable for him.
4. Diet suggestions
During recovery after bone grinding surgery, patients need to pay attention to the following dietary recommendations. First, keep your mouth clean, brush your teeth regularly and use mouthwash to avoid infection and oral odor. Secondly, avoid overexerting food to avoid irritation to the wound. In addition, patients also need to follow the doctor's dietary recommendations, adhere to regular follow-up visits, and report their recovery to the doctor in a timely manner.
To sum up, the time to return to normal diet after bone grinding surgery varies from individual to individual, and it usually takes about one month. During the period of diet recovery, patients need to follow diet restrictions, properly adjust diet, adhere to oral cleaning, and regularly return for consultation, so as to promote wound healing and recovery of surgical effects.
