Antimicrobial resistance in patients with odontogenic infections: A systematic scoping review of prospective and experimental studies.
Patients with odontogenic infections are commonly prescribed antimicrobials on an experiential base without knowing the precise microorganisms implicated. The aim of this systematic scoping review is to evaluate the prevalence and proportions of antimicrobial-resistant species in patients with odontogenic infections.A systematic scoping review of scientific evidence was accomplished involving different databases.Eight randomized clinical trials and 13 prospective observational studies were included. These investigations analyzed 1506 patients. The species that showed higher levels of resistance included aerobic and facultative anaerobe such asMost of the microorganisms had resistance to div…
