AUTHORED BY DR. PAUMIER
Antibiotics have improved health outcomes since
the discovery of penicillin and its widespread use during WW
II. However, their overuse and misuse has now threatened their
effectiveness and led to superbug infections that are untreatable,
as well as an increase in antibiotic
associated Clostridium difficile infections.
This training will provide antibiotic stewardship guidance
and cover the risks of inappropriate antibiotic use, including
antibiotic resistance. It will also review the latest ADA Clinical
Practice Guidelines related to when antibiotics are appropriate for
patients with odontogenic infections. Prescribing recommendations
as well as when and why antibiotics are indicated or not indicated
will be covered. Sample prescriptions will be provided.
The topic of antibiotic prophylaxis related to prosthetic
joints, cardiac conditions, bone marrow transplants and many other
medical conditions will be covered so you will be confident you are
treating these patients appropriately. Additionally, best
practices for antibiotic use for extractions, minor oral surgery,
implant placement and periodontal therapy will be
reviewed.
