Can we reduce antibiotic prescribing in dentistry?

A recent event – organised by the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Dentistry and Oral Health to which the BDA provides secretariat, and co-hosted by the APPGs on Pharmacy and Antibiotics – gave members of Parliament and Peers a chance to question a panel of experts in antimicrobial resistance across the main fields of primary care; in dentistry, pharmacy and general medical practice, and to discuss how we can reduce antibiotic prescribing in dentistry.
