Resistance is not an issue....

because the amount of antiobiotic given is insufficient to kill vulnerable bacteria and select out the resistant organisms. With this dose range, all susceptible bacteria presumably are unaffected. But the small doses are capable of inhibiting the metalloproteinase enzymes which medicate periodontal disease.

If I have failed to clarify this, please respond.

Best Regards,
