When undergoing any sort of oral surgery, it’s important that you understand your responsibilities as a patient. Both before and after treatment, you are responsible for taking proper care of yourself to ensure optimal results and a comfortable and quick recovery. In an effort to assist you in experiencing the best possible treatment process, we provide you with instructions for your pre- and post-operative care.

Your pre-operative instructions contain general rules and guidelines for preparing for surgery, which help ensure we can perform your procedure without any unforeseen complications. Your post-operative instructions contain more specific steps to follow and are most often tailored to your specific procedure. These guidelines will help you understand your limit regarding diet and exercise, and they will help you manage any pain or discomfort. We ask that you review all instructions prior to surgery so you can have all of your questions answered ahead of time.
