The day before your dental procedure, start taking the antibiotics and steroids that have been prescribed to you. Bring your sedation medication with you to the appointment. Do not wait until after the dental surgery to fill your medications.

The night before your procedure, have a nutritious and filling meal. The day of your dental surgery, eat a light breakfast or lunch. If you are having IV Sedation, do not eat six hours before your appointment.

Follow any changes to your regular medication that your medical doctor has advised for this surgery.

It is required for you to have a responsible adult drive you to and from your appointment. He or she will be asked to remain at the office during your surgery. If your driver needs to leave, he or she will need our office consent and must leave a cell phone number where he or she can be reached immediately.
