Dental work after a concussion?
 
I'd like to ask the board about their experience/ thoughts/ recommendations about dental work after a concussion.

Specifically, I'd like to get a number of implants.

My main concerns are about the effect of anesthetic on my concussed brain, and the effect of the drilling, pulling, etc., on my neck, jaw, and brain.

Your perspective is much appreciated!

I would not worry. Just give yourself a few days afterward to recover.

my symptoms worsened for several days just from a check-up. I need dental work, but I cannot even imagine getting it done any time soon.
