For a tooth infection, it is very important to clear the bacteria effectively. Your dentist might suggest switching to an oral generic antibiotic like amoxicillin or clindamycin, which bypasses the mouth-taste issue entirely. Alternatively, an antiseptic mouthwash containing chlorhexidine gluconate could be an option. Please consult your dentist before making any changes, as they can safely prescribe the right alternative for your specific infection.
