Dental surgery and infection

Postby oldbeek » Thu Jun 24, 2021 8:51 pm

Wonder if anyone has guidelines about using antibiotics for dental surgery after having an implant. The dental surgeon is clueless and asked for a clearance from my GP who is also clueless in this field. Anybody know of any reliable articles on the subject ?

For years my dentist has instructed me to premedicate (Amoxycillin) before any dental procedures because of my surgical/medical history. I think this is pretty routine everywhere.

I have 2 metal staples in my left heel and back in the 80's they wanted me to pre med for even a cleaning. But that has changed and I no longer do it. Might be for a certain amount of time. Ask your urologist who did your surgery.

Your implant surgeon is the one who should answer this question. Give their office a call and ask.
