Before: Before "treating. A problem it is important to diagnose the cause of the problem. Antibiotics should not be taken indiscriminantly. Please see your Dentist for diagnosis and/or referral to Endodontist, Oral Surgeon, or ENT. Now that you have started antibiotics do not stop unless instructed to do so.
