As the information provided is quite in-depth and substantial we have broken it down to a series of posts. Each week will be publishing 3 posts in the series. The full list of topics is available below.Like all medical and dental practices, at NQ Surgical Dentistry, we need to obtain an accurate, detailed medical history for all our patients.\u00a0 The medical history form is the first stage of collecting this information.\u00a0 At your consultation, Dr Priestland will discuss your medical history in more detail and may ask further questions to identify any additional information required to provide you with the best care possible and manage your medical conditions as they may relate to the treatment planned.If a patient has a number of medical issues, Dr Priestland may ask their doctor for a medical summary with a full drug history.\u00a0 This can be very useful in helping to plan surgery and ensure we offer the best combination of medications to avoid any drug interactions.Following any surgery, we provide all our patients with one page of post-operative instructions that are concise and cover the main points to facilitate a safe recovery.The more detailed information contained in this article series is a reference source for our patients to access should they want additional information on a range of issues that relate to patients\u2019 general medical health and how it can influence our dental management before, during and after dental surgery.\u00a0 The list below outlines the contents of this article series with
