Deciduous Molars

Introduction Most dental treatment for children in the United Kingdom (UK) is provided by general dental practitioners (GDPs) working in the National Health Service (NHS). A working party of the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry, in a special publication from the Dental Practice Board, has suggested that failure to provide restorative care for the deciduous dentition is unacceptable, yet GDPs are filling fewer teeth in young children. The study aimed to evaluate the health outcomes obtained from restoring carious deciduous molar teeth. Method The dental records of 677 children cared for by 50 GDPs in the north west of England were analysed. Results The results showed that 18.8% of deciduous molars with unrestored caries and 17.0% with a history of restorative care went on to be extracted because of pain or sepsis. Conclusion The results suggest that the risk of carious deciduous molars being extracted is similar whether these teeth receive restorative care or not.

The Endocarditis Working Party of the British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy has recently updated its recommendations for the antibiotic prophylaxis of infective endocarditis (Endocarditis Working Party, BSAC, Lancet 1990; 335: 88–89). This follows reports of nausea after large oral doses of erythromycin stearate, previously recommended for patients allergic to penicillin who are having dental work without a general anaesthetic. An alternative, clindamycin is now introduced. This antibiotic is very active against Gram-positive cocci, the most important organisms. These are the new recommendations.
