D Wray et al. Br Dent J. .

Abstract

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has developed a guideline on 'Prophylaxis against infective endocarditis'. This paper details the recommendations from these guidelines which relate to dental practice and discusses the clinical and cost-effectiveness evidence pertaining to them. This is taken from the full NICE guideline, which also includes guidance relating to non-dental procedures (http://www.nice.org.uk/CG064).
