How long before normal tooth brushing is possible after surgery?

[titaniumed]

I’ve been brushing my teeth in the shower for decades now. It solves the dribbling problem and reduces the amount of times you have to clean your sink. lol

My surgeon wanted me to go see my dentist before my surgeries as he didn’t want me to have any “dental” surprises in my recovery.....Funny because my teeth are perfect and have my cleanings done every 3 months.

I thought it was a good idea anyway....disturb the old bacteria party.
