Abstract (english)
Backgrounds: Antibiotics are used in endodontic treatment to control acute odontogenic infection and for prophylactic purposes. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge of dentists from the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina about the choice and the routes of antibiotic administration in endodontics. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved dentists in Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina health institutions. The Dental Chamber sent a twelve-question survey to members’ email addresses. They were asked about the type, dosage, indications, and side effects of antibiotics used in endodontics. The obtained data were screened and analyzed. Results: A total of 180 questionnaires were filled out. The most commonly prescribed antibiotic was amoxicillin with clavulanic acid. Pulp necrosis with symptomatic apical periodontitis, swelling, and moderately severe symptoms were the main indications for the therapeutic use of antibiotics. Amoxicillin, administered orally at 2 g 1 h before endodontic surgery for patients with bacterial endocarditis, was mostly indicated for the prophylactic use of antibiotics. Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, we can conclude that dentists from the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina have limited knowledge regarding antibiotic use in endodontics. Educational activities and campaigns are necessary to raise awareness about antibiotics in dental medicine in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
