    Abstract:
    Periodontal diseases are common, inflammatory infections of the mouth of microbiological etiology. Therapy traditionally focuses on professional tooth cleaning and debridement. Recent research has investigated the efficacy of antibiotic therapy, as well as the use of various other agents. Although protocols still are being developed, pharmacists can expect increasing use of these medications by dentists in the future.
