Are antibiotics necessary after root canal treatment?

It is not always necessary.
Antibiotics are used only in the following situations:

Widespread infection

Facial swelling

Systemic symptoms (fever, etc.)

Patients with weakened immune systems

Special clinical situations deemed appropriate by the physician

The main treatment is root canal disinfection and filling; antibiotics are only supportive.
