Controlling Pain After Implant Placement
Last Updated: Dec 11, 2006
Jen, a dentist, asks:
I am getting ready to do my first dental implant cases. I am a general practitioner with residency experience.
What do you usually prescribe for patients to control their pain after dental implant placement and what do you prescribe to decrease swelling? I want my dental implant patients to be comfortable but I do not want to over-prescribe. Thanks for any advice.
