Endodontic emergencies are stressful for all concerned and the type and intensity of signs and symptoms vary considerably. The “Three D’s” should be applied to quickly address and treat pain, inflammation and the possibility of systemic spread of infection. Karen will discuss best practices for the treatment of pain, inflammation and possible infection based on current guidelines and patient-specific characteristics. An extensive handout will enhance the chairside value of this fast-paced and practical lecture.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe a consistent and systematic approach to drug therapy of endodontic emergencies
  • Select antibiotic regimens for odontogenic infections based on allergies, intolerances, effectiveness, Black Box Warnings, and current guidelines
  • Prescribe the most effective pharmacotherapy for acute treatment of pain and inflammation
