Antibiotic prescribing patterns in the placement of dental implants in Europe: A systematic review of survey-based studies

CONCLUSIONS: The most commonly prescribed antibiotic both pre- and postoperatively is amoxicillin and, in allergic patients, clindamycin. In Europe, more doses of PAT are being prescribed than suggested by current recommendations. For this reason, more PAT education is needed in educational curricula to promote a more rational use of antibiotics to reduce the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance.PMID:38615255 | DOI:10.4317/medoral.26450
