Concerns About Medication in Dentistry Aside from the occasional checkup, some people have extensive dental work done, which may require them to take medicine to keep their teeth and overall health in good shape. Different people can have different kinds of problems with their teeth, and the medicine they take should be based on what their body needs. You'd be surprised at how many solutions pharmaceutical compounding can give dentists and their patients, since there are many alternatives to standard medications. No matter what a patient needs, we can turn prescriptions into a wide range of customized solutions, such as balms for sores, antibacterial rinses, solutions to keep dry sockets from happening, and much more. With standard medications, many people have trouble with how well they work and how stable they are, because their formulas aren't made for their exact situation. Dentistry is a hard field to work in because each patient has their own set of health problems. Our skills in compounding make it easier for each patient to get better because we can customize dosage, formulation, administration, and compliance at the same time.
