Is it safe to use neti pot after upper jaw surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check with Surgeon: Check and see. Much depends on the extent of surgery (LeFort I,II,III) and the means of stabilization, and how well healed the areas are, etc. Unless well healed, I would not recommend it. Follow the post surgical recommendations. Good Luck.
