ABSTRACT :
Since the mouth is the ideal habitat for the development of all types of organisms, the gums are likely to be exposed to many diseases caused by certain types of bacteria. Therefore, it is necessary to constantly search for suitable types of effective antibiotics that can eliminate gum infections.
A paper research includes a set of questions. The paper research questionnaire was distributed to one hundred dentists with an average experience of no less than 9 years. The research form addressed eight antibiotics recommended for use in treating Gum infections. In a statistical analysis of doctors’ answers about the most common antibiotics they use to treat gum infections, metronidazole ranked first, followed by amoxicillin and valdoxycycline. While clindamycin and ciprofloxacin ranked last. Doctors must currently commit not to prescribe antibiotics when there is a possibility of a patient’s spontaneous recovery, for fear of incorrect use of antibiotics, which leads to an increase in the spread of bacterial resistance.
