On approval, the treatment is scheduled and the dentist guides patients on pre-operative care. Some patients may require sedation during the treatment. Otherwise, local anesthesia is used during the oral surgery. After successfully completing the procedure, the patients are advised on post-operative care and are given appropriate medication.
