This is a preventative measure in case of infection that can damage the heart. Of course, if your dentist or dental specialist writes you a prescription for it. This is known as an anti-biotic prophylaxis, for the purpose of avoiding the introduction of bad bacteria into your bloodstream while penetrating deep tissues during any dental procedure which may break the skin. This is especially important for those with heart health issues (endo-carditis )and other, chronic disorders which may affect the bloodstream. Just follow your healthcare professional's advice
