Will I have pain after the MDI implant placement?Dr. Bowen Admin2019-11-13T14:46:08-06:00You should feel little discomfort, if any, after placement. Generally, any discomfort you do feel will go away within 48 hours. Over the counter pain relievers are usually adequate. If needed, your dentist can prescribe pain medication that will control the discomfort, which you should take as directed.
