Brief summary

Our objective is to evaluate the effect of a single dose of 2 g of oral amoxicillin administered 1 h before placement of single or multiple implants placed in a single surgical field in healthy adults versus placebo to reduce early failure of implants and postoperative infectious complications. The main hypothesis of this study is that there are no differences in the incidence of early implant failures and infectious complications after implant surgery oral implants in healthy, periodontally treated adults by administering a dose single dose of 2 grams of oral amoxicillin 1 hour before the intervention versus placebo.

Interventions
