I have my surgery next week, where I will be getting my front tooth extracted, a bone wrap, bone grafting, and an implant put in. I will also get an implant on my lower molar that was extracted four months ago.
My oral surgeon has never prescribed antibiotics for bone grafting or implants, so should I ask for them if he doesn't prescribe them? I really would rather not take them, but everything I read says you should have them with bone grafting and implants. I wanted to know your opinions on this.
I am writing out a list of questions to give him when I get there. I will be too anxious to ask once I am in the room, plus they start me on nitrous before I even see the surgeon. I won't be able to ask afterwards with my mouth numb and full of gauze.
