Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When conduits replace what nature made
Prosthetic vessels, artificial grade
Truncus repaired but danger still remains
Bacteria seeking colonizing gains
Each gingival breach becomes a gate
Where microbes infiltrate and propagate

[Chorus]
Prophylaxis protocol, never skip a dose
Before the dental drill, amoxicillin close
Lifelong vigilance for prosthetic parts
Guarding reconstructed cardiac arts
Eight fifty milligrams, one hour prior
Shield those conduits from bacterial fire

[Verse 2]
Residual shunts create turbulent streams
Where pathogens fulfill destructive dreams
Vegetations forming on foreign material
Endocarditis threat becomes serial
Every cleaning, scaling, root canal work
Requires antibiotic coverage to lurk

[Chorus]
Prophylaxis protocol, never skip a dose
Before the dental drill, amoxicillin close
Lifelong vigilance for prosthetic parts
Guarding reconstructed cardiac arts
Eight fifty milligrams, one hour prior
Shield those conduits from bacterial fire

[Bridge]
Fever, fatigue, new murmur's sound
Night sweats, weight loss, symptoms compound
Janeway lesions, splinter hemorrhage signs
Osler nodes painful, Roth spots in retinal lines
Educate patients, recognize the clues
Early treatment saves, delay means you lose

[Verse 3]
Dental hygiene excellence every day
Flossing, brushing keeps the bugs at bay
Concurrent infections need coverage broad
Pneumonia, cellulitis, don't leave to God
Penicillin allergy? Clindamycin works
Six hundred milligrams before dental perks

[Final Chorus]
Prophylaxis protocol, never skip a dose
Before the dental drill, protection close
Lifelong vigilance for prosthetic parts
Guarding reconstructed cardiac arts
Prevention better than cure's bitter cost
One missed dose, and a life could be lost
