Mitral Valve Prolapse
Last Updated: Apr 10, 2006
I have started treatment planning a dental implant rehabilitation for a patient with mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation.
She will be receiving multiple dental implants and two dental implant supported bridges. She routinely
takes an antibiotic premedication (amoxicillin) for dental treatment that involves gingival bleeding, surgery, etc. A periodontist will be placing the dental implants and I will be restoring them. When should I have her take the amoxicillin? Every time I try in the abutments and bridge components? Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.
