Is it okay to have a BBL with a cured tooth infection?

March 14, 2017
Asked By:Steff McAbby in Ridgefield, NJ

I am having my Brazilian Butt Lift 2 days from now and my dentist put on my permanent tooth crown 4 days ago and my gum got infected/ tooth abscess so I went to the doctor and he prescribed Amoxicillin as an antibiotic not a medication listed under medications I should avoid on my surgery contract but I have to go to the dentist to get it cured today. I don't know if it will immediate be cured but would this affect my surgery or put me at significant risk? I have perfect health just the tooth.
