The infections of the mouth are characterized for being polimicrobians, endogenous, opportunistic, dynamic and mixed because aerobic and specially anaerobic bacteria take part. Most of these infections are odontogenics, being the most frequent decays, periodontitis, periapical abscess, periodontal abscess, pericoronitis, pulpitis, sinusitis, osteitis and infection of the aponeurotic spaces. Quinolonas displays a high tissue penetration and a good absorption when it is provided after oral doses, but only the compounds developed recently as the Moxifloxacin demonstrates sufficient clinical and microbiological effectiveness.
