Question:
Abcess Tooth ?
Answer:
Dont let this dentist pull out the tooth without giving you some antibiotics
to cure the actual symptoms! Ask your regular doctor what kind of
antibiotics you can use without allergic related problems. Then talk to your
dentist what kind of antiobiotic you are allowed to use and USE THEM. I cant
imagine your dentist wont agree an antibiotic treatment suggested by your
regular doctor!
At first: Go to some drugstore and by Silica C30 and Pyrogen C6,
Take Sil C30 once, and wait 1h, and take Pyr C6, only if you have fever.
After 1h take next Sil C30, and if Abscess still is not opened, take Sil.
C30 again, after 1h.
That's all. And next time find some good Homeopath to menage your allergic
problems.
Antibiotics will NOT cure the symptoms. Nor will antibiotics cure the
problem. The problem is the abscessed tooth.
Yes, abscessed teeth are removed all the time before prescribing
antibiotics and should be. 40 years ago this might not have been done
but today we realize the importance of removing the cause of the
infection - the tooth - and then treating with antibiotics to help your
body finish off the infection. Waiting for antibiotics to decrease the
infection, which they may or may not do, is antiquated treatment.
Correct! Get the tooth and the pus out. Removal of the source of
infection and/or establishment of drainage are of paramount importance.
Pre-op antibiotics are for cardiac, prosthetic joint, etc. prophylaxsis
and have nothing other to do with treating an infected tooth.
I have discussed this with several oncologists, hematologists, and CT
surgeons concerning their severely immunocompromised patients (to see
if THEY might want the patient on antibiotics pre-operatively from a
medical standpoint) and they are all of one mind on this subject.
Pre-op antibiotics are not needed. Removal of the source of the
infection and and post-op antibiotic therapy are the appropriate
treatment. This agrees with everything I was taught and have read
concerning removal of abscessed teeth.
Even if I was going to give pre-op antibiotics I would not wait much
more than an hour after the antibiotic dose to do the needed work. That
is plenty long enough to get a blood level built up and protect from
any hematogenous spread of the infection you might be worried about.
Antibiotic treatment for days before removal of a tooth is ancient
therapy.
