Antibiotics Before an Appointment

If your dentist has prescribed antibiotics for you to take prior to your next dental appointment, it is a good idea to follow this instruction, because it is for maintenance of your good health.

During a dental procedure, the bacteria normally present in the mouth can enter the bloodstream. For most people, these bacteria cause no problems. However, if you have weak, damaged or replaced heart valves, or have had a joint replaced, these bacteria can cause infections. Your dentist wants to make sure that you are protected. Also, be sure to inform your Dentist if you are allergic to certain antibiotics.
