Timing rules
- Arrive 24-48 hours before invasive surgery if possible.
- Avoid same-day long-haul flights after implant surgery or final bonding.
- Keep a buffer day near the end of veneer, crown or full-arch cases.
- Build in extra time if your route includes separate tickets or domestic connections.
