Although microbial resistance to antibiotics is increasing rapidly and alarmingly throughout the world, dentistry has been relatively conservative with antibiotic use and probably has not contributed greatly to the problem. The ADA Council on Scientific Affairs has prepared this statement on the use of antibiotics in dentistry to clarify the profession's role in combating the growing microbial resistance to this popular class of drugs.
尽管在全球范围内，微生物对抗生素的耐药性正在迅速且惊人地增加，但牙科在抗生素使用方面一直相对保守，可能对这一问题的影响不大。美国牙科协会科学事务委员会编写了这份关于牙科领域抗生素使用的声明，以阐明该行业在应对微生物对这类常用药物日益增长的耐药性方面所起的作用。
