Yesterday I looked at my pm supplier's website regarding dental work recommendations.

Mine said it should be OK, but tell the dentist.

Went to the dentist about 4 weeks after having my ICD implanted. They still did all the normal stuff, although they did call my Cardiologist before they did anything...

I have had several procedures at the dds. Just last week I had a bridge and it was business as usual. Cleanings I get every 3 months and no problem.
