Backgroud: An excisional biopsy is one of the surgical treatments given to cases of small benign tumors in the soft tissues of the oral cavity. Antibiotics are prescribed by dentists as a follow-up therapy after excisional biopsy to prevent bacterial infection. The purpose of this study was to determine the profile of antibiotic drug prescription after excision biopsy of oral soft tissue disease by dentists in Palembang. Methods: This type of research is descriptive observational with a survey method. The research was carried out by distributing questionnaires to 40 dentists and dental specialists in Palembang who had performed excision biopsy treatment for oral soft tissue disease. Result: The results showed that the antibiotic prescription of amoxicillin was 55%, the combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid was 17.5%, and clindamycin was 12.5%. The cases found in this study were epulis 57.5%, mucocele 30%, and traumatic fibroma 10%. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the antibiotic most often prescribed by dentists in Palembang after excision biopsy treatment was amoxicillin and the most common case was epulis.
