It has previously been shown that using dental implants for oral rehabilitation has generally produced favorable short- and long-term outcomes during the last few years. Implant success is hampered by the significant risk of postoperative infection caused by local environmental variables. For implant success, postoperative infection is necessary to be addressed as soon as feasible. We searched Medline, Pubmed, Embase, NCBI, and Cochrane databases to find information about the causes and mechanisms of implant infection, as well as how to manage it. The inclusion criteria included papers about infections and dental implants. Articles that were not specifically about this subject were not included. We also located and used other papers that were cited in this research. Studies that provided information on the kinds of medications and surgical techniques used to treat the illness were given priority. There is an urgent need to improve the way antibiotics are currently prescribed to treat endodontic infections. Given that antibiotics are often overprescribed for the treatment of endodontic infections, educational programs should be implemented to promote better, more responsible use.
