Before Endodontic Treatment

This procedure will be performed using local anesthesia. There are usually no restrictions after the procedure concerning driving or returning to work. A doctor is available for consultation at all times should a problem arise after your treatment.

Continue all medications for blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid problems and any other conditions as recommended by your physician. If there is a question, please call our office prior to your appointment.

Please eat a full breakfast or lunch as applicable.

If you have been advised by your physician or dentist to use antibiotic premedication because of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), heart murmur, hip, knee, cardiac or other prosthesis, or if you have rheumatic heart disease, please make sure you are on the appropriate antibiotic on the day of your appointment. If there is a question, please call our office prior to your appointment.

If you have already been diagnosed by Dr. Barria or Dr. Whelan, you can take ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen sodium (Aleve) , which helps reduce inflammation when taken pre-operatively. If it is not contraindicated by your medical history, we recommend 2 tablets of either medication 2- 4 hours before endodontic therapy.

If a CBCT scan is needed we will ask you to remove all non essential mental from the neck up.

If you have any questions, please call our office at 802-872-0300
