Abstract
The Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures evidence-based clinical practice guideline was codeveloped by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and the American Dental Association. This guideline replaces the previous AAOS Information Statement, "Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Bacteremia in Patients With Joint Replacement," published in 2009. Based on the best current evidence and a systematic review of published studies, three recommendations have been created to guide clinical practice in the prevention of orthopaedic implant infections in patients undergoing dental procedures. The first recommendation is graded as Limited; this recommendation proposes that the practitioner consider changing the long-standing practice of routinely prescribing prophylactic antibiotic for patients with orthopaedic implants who undergo dental procedures. The second, graded as Inconclusive, addresses the use of oral topical antimicrobials in the prevention of periprosthetic joint infections. The third recommendation, a Consensus statement, addresses the maintenance of good oral hygiene.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Many a times in clinical periodontology, the decision whether to prescribe prophylactic antibiotics or not, is perplexing.The present study was conducted to compare the bacteremias induced after periodontal flap surgeries with and without prophylactic antibiotics. MATERIALS AND METHODS The occurrence of postoperative bacteremia following periodontal flap surgery was studied in 30 patients. On these patients, 30 quadrant wise flap surgeries were carried out without any preoperative prophylactic antibiotics and 30 surgeries carried out after prophylactic administration of amoxycillin preoperatively. A blood sample was taken from each patient at the time of maximum surgical trauma and was cultured for micro-organisms and antibiotic sensitivity. RESULTS 18 out of 60 blood samples were positive for micro-organisms. There was a significant reduction in post operative bacteremia after amoxycillin prophylaxis (x(2) - 7.96 with P<0.01) as post operative bacteremia was found in 14 of the non medicated patients as compared to only 4 of the pre medicated patients. The micro-organisms encountered in the study are as follows:- 1) Staphylococcus albus coagulase negative, 2) Klebsiella, 3) Psedomonas aerugenosa, 4) Streptococcus viridans, 5) Alpha hemolytic streptococcus, 6) Neisseria catarrhalis CONCLUSION On the basis of the study, it is concluded that the incidence of postoperative bacteremia following periodontal flap surgery is not as high as previously reported. The clinical results show that Amoxicillin is highly effective in reducing postoperative bacteremia in periodontal flap surgery and thus in preventing the possible sequelae (Infective Endocarditis and other systemic maladies) in susceptible patients. However, cefotaxime and cephalexin may prove to be more effective in preventing the same.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Current prophylaxis for endocarditis in patients undergoing dental procedures consists of oral administration of amoxicillin. There is concern that the risk of anaphylaxis from systemically administered antibiotics might approach the incidence of endocarditis. Emergence of resistance among bacteria is also favored by systemically administered antibiotics. The present study was designed to assess the efficacy of topical amoxicillin given prophylactically as a mouthwash in reducing the incidence of bacteremia after dental extraction. STUDY DESIGN Thirty-six outpatients in a dental clinic were randomized in a 3:2:2 ratio to experimental prophylaxis of topical amoxicillin (3 g per mouthwash rinse; 15 patients), standard prophylaxis of oral amoxicillin (3 g in a single dose; 11 patients), or no prophylaxis (10 patients), respectively. Patients were stratified by severity of periodontal disease and number of teeth extracted. Data were analyzed for differences in the incidence of bacteremia by means of the 2-tailed Fisher exact test. RESULTS Breakthrough bacteremia after dental extraction was observed in 60% (6 of 10 patients) who received topical amoxicillin and in 89% (8 of 9 patients) who received no prophylaxis (P =.30). By comparison, breakthrough bacteremia after dental extraction was observed in 10% (1 of 10 patients) who received standard prophylaxis with oral amoxicillin (60% vs 10%; P =.05). CONCLUSIONS Topical amoxicillin decreased the incidence of bacteremia in comparison with no prophylaxis, but statistical significance was not achieved (P =.30). Topical amoxicillin was significantly less effective than standard prophylaxis with oral amoxicillin in decreasing the incidence of bacteremia after dental extractions.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of bacteremia after a single professional subgingival irrigation with a 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate mouthrinse (CHX) as well as after a subsequent scaling and root planing (S/RP) during the same visit. Thirty subjects each with at least 1 site that probed 4 mm or more and bled on probing were randomly assigned to the following groups: 1) irrigation with 0.12% CHX; 2) irrigation with sterile water; and 3) non-irrigated controls. To begin the study blood was drawn just before and 2 minutes after irrigation. Thirty minutes later, blood was drawn again just before and 2 minutes after S/RP at the same site. Specimens were cultured for anaerobic and aerobic microorganisms using standard cultural techniques. Eighteen blood cultures from 15 subjects yielded positive cultures resulting in 23 isolates. Gram-positive rods comprised 34.8% of the total isolates; Gram-positive cocci 34.8%, Gram-negative rods 21.7%, and Gram-negative cocci 8.7%. In the CHX group, bacteremia was detected in 5 subjects after irrigation and in 2 other subjects after S/RP. In the water group, bacteremia was detected in one subject after irrigation and in 4 subjects after S/RP. The control group had 3 bacteremias after S/RP. There was no significant difference between the incidence of bacteremia associated with irrigation by CHX or sterile water (P = 0.141). There was also no significant difference in the incidence of bacteremia after S/RP between the CHX and sterile water irrigation groups and in patients who did not receive irrigation (control group) (P = 0.88).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of professional subgingival irrigation, together with subsequent patient administered home marginal irrigation, on the incidence of bacteremia after scaling and root planing (Sc/RP). A total of 60 periodontal maintenance patients were assigned to either Group 1: subgingival irrigation, with 0.12% CHX and daily marginal irrigation with 0.04% CHX; Group 2: subgingival irrigation with 0.12% CHX and daily marginal irrigation with water; Group 3: subgingival and daily marginal irrigation with water; Group 4: Non-irrigation (control). Patients entered the study after receiving a thorough periodontal maintenance appointment including a complete examination, Sc/RP, and standard oral hygiene instruction. Blood samples were taken at the 3-month visit before and after Sc/RP. Microbiological culturing was done using the Septi-Chek system, selective and non-selective media. Results from 54 patients showed that bacteremia was detected prior to Sc/RP in 2 patients and after Sc/RP in 10 patients. No significant effect by treatment regimens on post Sc/RP bacteremia could be detected. The organisms isolated included Eubacterium lentum, Propionibacterium acnes, Streptococcus species, Neisseria species, Candida albicans, Staphylococcus species, and un-identified Gram-negative rods.

Abstract
Because interdental and subgingival sites are relatively inaccessible to mouthrinsing, they necessitate alternative methods of application of anti-plaque chemicals. These include routine oral hygiene aids, surfactants to enhance uptake and retention of antimicrobials, gels and periodontal dressings. The principal modes of application that have received attention recently, apart from the systemic route, are syringe and pulsated jet irrigation and slow release compounds. Slow release devices currently receiving attention may be classified as membrane diffusion, solution of drug in polymer and solid drug dispersed in polymer matrix. The most widespread dental instance of a slow release device appears to be the use of varnishes and resins to carry fluoride. Recent attempts at devising improved methods of antimicrobial application include the testing of materials for their biodegradability or for their potential to adhere to mucosal surfaces. It is concluded that the potential exists for antimicrobials applied directly to the site of intended action to contribute significantly to dental health, particularly when employed as components of practical oral hygiene regimes.

Abstract
A study was made to determine the extent of bacteremia experienced by patients undergoing orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances during periods of routine oral hygiene--namely, brushing the teeth. Sixteen orthodontic patients made up the population--11 who practiced good oral hygiene and five who demonstrated poor oral hygiene. Blood was drawn aseptically from the median cubital vein of the subjects before and 15 minutes after brushing the teeth. An aliquot of each blood specimen was added to separate blood culture bottles and incubated at 37 degrees C for a period of up to 5 days. Blood was also used to determine the immune status of the subjects. Anaerobic bacteria were recovered from the blood of nine of the 16 patients studied; aerobic bacteria were not recovered. A negative blood culture before brushing and positive blood culture after brushing were expected but did not occur. Some subjects showed bacteremia before brushing and a negative blood culture after brushing. Others showed bacteremia before and after brushing. The unexpected results could be attributed to the patients eating and/or brushing before starting the test. The study showed the capacity of specific anaerobic bacteria to remain in the bloodstream for a 15-minute period. It also demonstrated a presence of bacteria in the bloodstream before the test began.

Abstract
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effectiveness of irrigating periodontal pockets with povidone-iodine in reducing the incidence of bacteremia found during subgingival scaling. Twenty male patients requiring subgingival scaling had the following factors recorded on two contralateral groups of three posterior teeth: age, race, mean pocket depth, mobility, and scores of gingival, plaque, calculus, bleeding indices. In control areas, 5 ml blood samples were taken before, during and after scaling through an in dwelling Minicath. In experimental areas, the patients first rinsed with a povidone-iodine mouthwash for 1 minute, and the teeth then received a 3-minute sulcus irrigation with 10% povidone-iodine. Blood samples were taken as with the controls, and also 2 minutes after the irrigation. Blood samples were anaerobically cultured, and isolates were classified by Gram staining and cellular morphology. No significant difference in factors between control and experimental areas was noted. All preoperative blood cultures, including those taken 2 minutes after irrigation, were negative. In the 11 patients (55%0 who showed positive cultures during the scaling, cultures were positive in both control and experimental areas. None of the preoperatively recorded factors in either control or experimental ares were significantly correlated with the occurrence of bacteremia. Local degerming by mouthrinsing and sulcus irrigation with povidone-iodine prior to subgingival scaling seems neither to increase nor decrease the incidence of bacteremia.

Abstract
Bacteremia that occurs after dental extraction is common. This study assessed the effect of topical antisepsis on the incidence and magnitude of post-extraction bacteremia. On hundred patients scheduled for elective tooth extraction were randomized among four groups: contr-l, mouthrinsing with sodium-p-toluene sulfonchloramide (chloramine-T), toothbrushing with chloramine-T, and irrigation with Lugol's solution. The results showed that 84% of the control group and 59% of the treatment groups had positive blood cultures (290 organisms isolated) after dental extraction. The duration and magnitude of these bacteremias were diminutive as documented by the six serial blood cultures taken for each patient, colony counts per milliliter of blood, and nitroblue tetrazolium and Limulus assays. Brushing the teeth or rinsing the mouth with chloramine-T before dental extraction significantly reduced the incidence of bacteremia (P less than .025) and the number of different organisms recovered from each patient (P less than .05). Thus, topical treatment with chloramine-T is a simple and effective means of reducing the incidence of postextraction bacteremia.

Abstract
Ninety-six subjects were assigned to one of four groups according to severity of gingival inflammation and bacterial plaque accumulation on the teeth. Following a standardized toothbrushing procedure, blood specimens from a vein in the antecubital fossa were cultured under aerobic and stringent anaerobic conditions. The percentage of positive cultures increased significantly with increasing severity of gingival inflammation, as did the number of species of organisms isolated. Thirty different microbial species indigenous to the oral cavity, including many strict anaerobes, were recovered. The study has implications for standards of oral health which might be considered necessary in patients with congenital or acquired endocardial defects or cardiovascular prostheses.

Abstract
Congenital neutropenia is characterized by a marked decrease in or lack of circulating PMN's in children with no prior history of drug intake. The neutropenia is persistent and the clinical course is one of early onset of severe, recurrent, and eventually fatal infections. Bone marrow studies show a maturation arrest of neutrophilic precursors. Because of their greatly increased susceptibility to infection, patients with congenital neutropenia present a difficult dental management problem. A case of congenital neutropenia has been presented, as well as a biorationale for dental treatment. On the basis of reports in the literature, the following recommendations for the management of patients with congenital neutropenia are made: 1. The prevention and control of infection and the interception of dental disease before surgical intervention becomes necessary should be the overriding considerations in the management of patients with congenital neutropenia. 2. The carious breakdown of teeth should be prevented by the daily application of a 0.4 per cent stannous fluoride gel in addition to oral hygiene and limitation of sucrose intake. 3. Periodontal therapy should be palliative only, since alveolar bone loss is progressive despite frequent oral hygiene instruction and prophylaxis. The goal of periodontal therapy for patients with congenital neutropenia should therefore be a decrease in gingival inflammation to make the patient's mouth more comfortable and to slow down alveolar bone loss. Periodontal surgery is contraindicated. 4. Bacteremia and subsequent septicemia should be prevented since a minor infection can become life threatening in patients with congenital neutropenia. The patient should rinse for 30 seconds and the gingival sulci should be irrigated with a phenolated antiseptic mouthwash prior to all dental manipulations of the soft tissue. This will significantly reduce the incidence of bacteremia. 5. Surgery should be avoided if at all possible because of the high risk of post-operative infection. All surgery sholld be performed in the hospital, and the patient should be given antibiotics as determined by his physician. Primary closure should be done with fine polyglycolic acid sutures to reduce the chance of infection. If postoperative infection can be prevented, wound healing will progress normally despite the complete absence of PMN's.

Abstract
Three cases are reported in which there was a worrisome association between dental work and an infected total hip replacement. The patients had long asymptomatic intervals subsequent to implantation of prosthetic hip joints. After dental procedures, infections became apparent in these hips. Such infections carry an enormous and crippling morbidity. The potential complications of transient bacteremia in the patient with a cardiac valvular prosthesis are appreciated and the importance of prophylactic antibodies for dental work in such patients is well known. Although we emphasize that there is no proof that the infections in our patients were metastatic from the mouth, the sequence of events is suggestive. We recommend prophylactic antibiotics for dental work in the patient with a total hip replacement.

Abstract
A recent study has claimed that children who do not have gingivitis do not have bacteremia following dental manipulations and that these children do not require antibiotic prophylaxis. Postoperative blood cultures from 53 children and adolescents with and without gingivitis drawn within ten minutes of elevation of the gums, extraction of teeth, and extensive gingivectomies were sterile in all cases. The collection and laboratory methods and media were carefully evaluated and found satisfactory. However, the time interval between the dental procedure and the collection of the blood is believed to have been too short for reliable results and that the abandonment of the antibiotic prophylaxis in children is unwarranted.
