Clostridioides difficile infection risk and contemporary antibiotic use: Evidence from a large real-world dataset highlighting the need for a comprehensive antibiotic stewardship in dentistry. (PubMed, J Dent Sci) - Sep 4, 2026 - "To isolate a distinct patient group, individuals who had received standard CDI treatments vancomycin, metronidazole, or fidaxomicin either before or after diagnosis were excluded. Notably, historically high-risk antibiotics like clindamycin and fluoroquinolones were not the most frequently used prior to CDI diagnosis. These insights underscore the importance of comprehensive antibiotic stewardship across all classes prescribed in dental care."
