Message from my dentist,
When I sent my post update yesterday, I forget to share the message my dentist gave me. I had my regular 6 month dental cleaning appointment that I had made way out before my surgery. He didn't clean my teeth at this appointment because: Teeth cleaning releases alot of bacteria into your system and it could possibly cause some infection complications. He advised me to get the clearance from my surgeon first and also, he would advise to me to be pretreated with antibiotics prior to the procedure. This may be a practice isolated only to my dental clinic but it made sense to me and thought it was worth sharing.
