dc.description.abstract | The aim of this study was to analyze the antibiotics prescription habits, both prophylacti cally and therapeutically, of Spanish general dental practitioners in the management of endodontic
infections in primary care. Two hundred Spanish general dental practitioners were asked to respond
to a survey on indications for antibiotics prescription in the treatment of endodontic infections, being
190 general dentists (95%) included in the study. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics
and the chi-square test. The average duration of antibiotics therapy was 6.5 ± 1.0 days. In patients
without medical allergies, most of them (97%) selected amoxicillin as the antibiotic of the first choice,
alone (51.1%) or associated with clavulanic acid (45.8%); in patients with penicillin allergies, the drug
of choice was clindamycin 300 mg (70%). For cases of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis, 44% of the
respondents prescribed antibiotics, in the scenario of prophylactic antibiotic prescription, up to 27%
of the general dentists prescribe according to non-current guidelines (1 g 1 h before or 1 g 1 h before
and 1 g 1 h after) in non-indicated cases (16% in patients taking oral bisphosphonates). It is necessary
to improve the antibiotic prescription habits of Spanish general dentists in endodontics. | es |
