Implant surgery can be performed under local anesthesia or anesthetic nerve block, and general anesthesia is required in all-out implant surgeries. Before surgery, the surface of the skin around the patient’s mouth and lips should be disinfected with betadine, and the patient should wash his or her mouth with chlorhexidine rinse for two minutes. The use of surgical anti-anxiety measures is mandatory for patients with severe anxiety, and Benzodiazepine 5mg may be given the night before and one hour before surgery. Also, in patients who require antibiotic prophylaxis, antibiotic treatment should be performed prior to transplant surgeries and according to standard protocol.
