Homeopathic and herbal remedies are given to all patients following treatment to reduce any incidence of post-operative pain and promote healing. We use a holistic approach and recommend supplements such as multivitamins and antioxidants to heal the body following an infection in the mouth; these greatly reduce the number of antibiotics needing to be prescribed. This is probably the most important innovation in our practicing armamentarium, and has changed us to an almost Antibiotic and Painkiller Free practice. Not only are antibiotics best avoided where possible for individual patients, the increasing prolific use of antibiotics to treat dental infections also raises concern about the long term problems of antibiotic resistance. Supplements provide a healthy solution to both these problems. We provide information on longer term use (1-2 months) of these supplements and how to obtain them from a very reputable company, if you wish to take them. Our aim is to provide the very best chance of healing the affected area as quickly as possible, as well as care for the general health of all our patients as much as possible at the same time.
