Questions to Ask Your Surgical Team
Your surgeon and healthcare team are your best source of guidance. You might like to ask:
- What should I expect on the day of surgery?
- What type of instruments do you use in the operation?
- What are the risks of the operation?
- How do you minimise the risks?
- Will an Oroguard protection device be used during the procedure?
This straightforward approach makes Oroguard easy to adopt in any operating theatre.
