Can you avoid a root canal with antibiotics?

Antibiotics are prescribed by dentists mostly for tooth infections that may or may not cause an abscess. Having said that not all tooth infections require antibiotics too. Most dentists would avoid the usage of antibiotics unless the infection is severe and spreading or if the person has a weakened immune system. 

In the case of Root canal treatment, it needs to be understood that the treatment is done only because the infection has reached the deeper pockets of the root canal. So when infections are deep-rooted mere administration of antibiotics does not work. It needs to be mentioned however that in most cases after the root canal treatment is done, the root canal is washed with antibiotics to prevent the infection from spreading or to kill the germs present in the root cavity.
