Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: ANTIBACTERIAL TREATMENT performed by dental practitioners is important in management of ODONTOGENIC INFECTIONs. Nowadays, unfortunately because of incorrect antibiotic prescribing by dental practitioners of their low KNOWLEDGE in this field, resistant species of microorganisms occur. The goal of this study was to evaluate GENERAL DENTAL PRACTITIONERs (GDPs) KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE and PRACTICE about ANTIBACTERIAL TREATMENT of ODONTOGENIC INFECTIONs in five cities of Mazandaran. METHODS: This KAP study was performed on 152 GDPs in five cities of Mazandaran in 2001. Data were collected by questionnaire and then analyzed with Chi-square and Kruskal Wallis statistical test. FINDINGS: Among 152 GDPs, there were 111 men (73%) and 41 women (27%). Fifty-nine GDPs had lower than 5 years of service, 47 GDPs had between 6-11 years and 43 GDPs had more than 11 years of service. The mean of KNOWLEDGE was 9.9 from total 22 scores, in men it was more than women and reduced with increasing years of service. 78.9% of GDPs obtained all 2 scores of ATTITUDE and 77.3% obtained 2 and more scores of all 4 PRACTICE scores and it was not in associated with sex and years of service.CONCLUSION: Unfortunately, KNOWLEDGE level of GDPs about ANTIBACTERIAL TREATMENT of ODONTOGENIC INFECTIONs is not satisfactory and it would be decreased after completion of their education.
