Why Are Antibiotics Given Before Teeth Cleanings? 💊🦷

Antibiotics may be prescribed before a teeth cleaning for patients with certain health conditions to prevent infection. Common reasons include:

  1. Heart Conditions: To avoid endocarditis (infection of the heart lining).

  2. Artificial Joints: To reduce the risk of infection after dental procedures.

  3. Weakened Immune System: If you have conditions like diabetes, cancer, or HIV.

💡 Tip: Always inform your dentist about any pre-existing conditions, as it helps determine whether antibiotics are necessary before your cleaning!
