To determine the pattern of antibiotic prescription and to assess the knowledge of antibiotic resistance among dentists. Material and Methods An electronic version of the questionnaire regarding antibiotic use and knowledge on antibiotic resistance was created using google forms and a link was mailed to dental surgeons and their response was recorded. Data obtained was recorded and analysed using descriptive statistics. Results Out of 130 responses recorded 45.4% of dentists prefer prescribing antibiotics daily. Amoxicillin was the most often recommended antibiotic by majority (49.6%) of the practitioners, While 54.6% of dentists considered a duration of 3 days course of antibiotics for odontogenic infections. 43.7% of the respondent’s considered clindamycin as an alternative in penicillin-allergic patients. Abscess was the most common (67.2%) condition considered for antibiotic prescription ,49.6% of the participants stated that availability of a particular brand as a primary factor for prescription of antibiotics. 40.3% of dental surgeons felt that failure to prescribe antibiotics was the main reason for the spread of infection. Almost 91.8% of dental surgeons were aware that antibiotic resistance was becoming a global concern. Conclusion Antibiotics revolutionized the way infections are being treated, Although incorrect and inappropriate use of antibiotics could be a contributing factor for the development of Antibiotic Resistance. Anti-microbial stewardship should be deeply integrated into dental practice and oral health care, to reduce the number of unnecessary prescriptions and educational intervention is utmost essential to limit non-medical prescriptions. Key Words Anti-microbial resistance in dentistry, Antibiotic prescribing patterns, Antibiotic resistance, Over-prescription

This is the third article in the series of articles ‘Quality Accreditation of Dental Clinics – Need of the hour’. As described in the first article (Published in JIDA May 2020 issue) there are 10 chapters in NABH standards for Dental Healthcare Service Providers (DHSP). First chapter ‘Access, Assessment & Continuity of Care’ (AAC) was described in JIDA June 2020 issue. ‘Care Of Patients’ (COP) is the second chapter. Addressing accreditation standards and implementing them in day-to-day practices is the primary objective in the preparation of DHSP for accreditation. Involvement of clinical staff is needed to address requirements of this chapter; as this chapter describes the clinical aspects of care for patients under dental treatment. This expects to provide uniform care to all patients. This chapter covers aspects related to legal guidelines, clinical guidelines, emergency services in dental practice, dental laboratory, use of local anaesthesia and sedation in dentistry. Aim of this article was to provide brief idea about the criteria required to fulfill in order to address requirements related to the second chapter of NABH i.e. COP.

Providing quality and timely care to patients has been a constant challenge to the healthcare industry. Long waiting hours and unavailability of timely appointments are a major source of dissatisfaction among patients. The average access times, average internal waiting times, overtime, and utilization show the performance of the outpatient clinic in the current scenario. In this review we have elaborated you in recapitulating the need and importance of OPD, the functions and models of OPD, the problems encountered by patients in OPD, the tools and techniques to evaluate OPD service both qualitative and quantitatively in removing the bottlenecks and ameliorate shortcomings.

Halitosis is a bad breath emanating from the oral cavity and may be due to oral or non-oral sources. It is one of the important factors in social communication; hence the origin of concern not only for a possible health condition but also for frequent psychological alterations leading to social and personal isolation. Halitosis is common in children and occurs due to many reasons like allergies, cold, chronic sinusitis, dietary pattern, large tonsils, dental caries, periodontal disease, poor oral hygiene. This article provides a review about aetiologic classification, diagnosis and management of halitosis along with a series of recommendations which will help in elimination of bad breath in children. Key Words: Halitosis,volatile Sulphur compound, malodor

Brief Background Dental Implant associated malignant lesions are being increasingly reported. The pathway for this phenomenon largely remains unexplored and an attempt is made to address the same. Materials and Methods The mRNA expression of tissues from healthy peri-implant and peri-implantitis tissues were collected from human Gene Expression Omnibus database and subjected to differential expression (DE) analysis with adjusted P-value≤0.05 and Log-Fold-change at 1.5. From DE genes, those entities that were associated with “reaction to metals” were collated. Significant genes were subjected to network analysis and subsequent pathway enrichment analysis. Results In all 430 genes had DE of which 22 genes were related to the“reaction to metals”. They were the IL1A, CPNE1, MDM2, CALR, NCSTN, HSPA5, NPC1, S100A8, HIF1A, CPNE3, EIF2A, APP, KRT14, SEC31A, S100A16, IQGAP1, PRNP, NFE2L2, ADAM9, B2M, CAV1 and LGMN. Network and enrichment analysis revealed them to be associated with several cancer pathways and signaling network. Discussion Peri-implantitis has DE genes related to reaction to metals, are associated with tumorigenesis, apoptosis, cellular senescence and biological process linked with malignant transformation. In presence of elevated risks cumulative alterations in the transcriptome profile may increase the risk of malignant transformation. Key Words Dental Implants, Peri-implantitis, Oral Cancer, Implant associated cancer, Differential Gene expression, Metal ion, Titanium.
