The principles of good preand postoperative care of the dental surgery patient have been reviewed. Diagnosis, which is the crux of the entire problem, has been stressed.

Therefore some of the medical conditions that influence dental surgery and the usual precautions and premedications that pertain to them are presented. A few pertinent preoperative instructions that may assist patientdoctor rapport have been mentioned. |
