In addition excessive enthusiasm has led to extensive misuse of these drugs with consequent emergence of resistant strains of bacteria. Hence the major emphasis today is on judicious use of antimicrobial agents based on the knowledge of the likely pathogen and it’s probably susceptibility. But many a times it takes time to get this information and hence go in for antibiotic prophylaxis. The following article presents a review on the role of Antibiotics and its role in Dentistry.
