Abstract: This literature reviewed antibiotic susceptibility of periodontal microorganisms. Information about disease causing periodontal pathogens, concepts of bacterial etiology of periodontal diseases, various antibiotic susceptibility tests and antibiotic susceptibility of periodontal organisms and its mechanism of action was demonstrated.
