High impact information on Periodontal Abscess

  • When either a periodontal abscess or greater than 2 mm loss of gingival attachment was observed, metronidazole was administered (250 mg every 8 hours) for 10 days [1].
  • When a site exhibited greater than or equal to 2 mm loss of GAL or a periodontal abscess, patients were administered either doxycycline at a dosage of 200 mg to start and 100 mg per day for 3 weeks, or a placebo [2].
  • If any site exhibited greater than or equal to 2 mm loss of GAL or a periodontal abscess, patients were administered either 100 mg Doxycycline per day for 3 weeks or placebo [3].
  • At this time immunosuppressive CyA therapy was discontinued because of a periodontal abscess [4].
