RESUMO
Despite morbidity factors that include pain and complications with healing, there is currently little available guidance regarding optimal pre-and post-operative protocols for dental implant placement. While the first paper of this two-part series discussed the management of post-operative pain, the second instalment reviews pre- and post-operative means of managing early complications associated with dental implant placement.

Although dental implant placements have high success rates and a low incidence of morbidity, post-operative pain and complications with the healing process have been reported. There is little guidance available regarding optimal pre- and post-operative management of dental implant placement. This first paper discusses the mechanisms of pain associated with dental implant placement and offers guidance to clinicians on optimal pre- and post-operative pain management regimes. The second paper aims to discuss pre- and post-operative means of reducing the risk of early healing complications.
