If you have undergone such treatment it is important you discuss this with Dr. Priestland.Most orthopaedic surgeons will prefer that all of their joint replacement patients are given antibiotics before dental extractions and\/or oral surgery.\u00a0 During surgery in the mouth where there are large numbers of bacteria present, it has been found that \u201cshowers\u201d of bacteria manage to gain entry into the small blood vessels of the surgical site and then circulate in the blood system.\u00a0 This is called a bacteraemia.\u00a0 Such a situation can occasionally lead to infections associated with prosthetic joints.\u00a0 Please inform your dentist and\/or surgeon if you have received joint replacements or if you have any questions concerning the best way to manage your dental health.contact the friendly team at NQ Surgical Dentistry today on\u00a0(07) 4725 1656 or call in to see us at\u00a0183 Kings Rd, Pimlico QLD 4812Other posts in this seriesMedication and Dental Surgery: How your medical history influences treatment decisions &#8211;
