Postsurgical instructions
PLAQUE
Amoxicillin was prescribed (500 mg, cap, 4 times per day for 7 days) and Brufen 600 mg was also prescribed at the beginning of the surgical procedure and subsequently when necessary. Patients were recommended not to brush their teeth in the treatment area but to wipe it with wet cotton with a chlorhexidine solution of 0.12% for a period of 2 weeks. After that, plaque control was performed by atraumatic tooth brushing. The sutures were removed after 10 days.
