Chlorhexidine, is it safe to use instead of locally injected antibiotics for deep cleanings?

Being that the dental insurance does not cover the injections
--------------------
If you were told that you need antibiotics injected in your gum tissue there is a difference. The antibiotic you are talking about is called Arestin. This is used when you have deep pockets around your tooth, or you have irritation in that area due to a number of things. This works differently because it is injected into the socket, then it promotes healing over a long period or time. The rinse is something that they give you to use on a daily basis, or after a deep cleaning to also promote healthy gum tissue, there is a difference between the two. The rinse can cause staining over time. But both are for gum disease
