This course helps dental professionals to identify patients who are at-risk or highly susceptible to infection, from opportunistic infectious diseases, as a result of dental procedures and/or pre-existing medical conditions. The dental professional will become familiar with oral and systemic infections and how some may result as a side effect of dental procedures and routine oral care. Some of the topics covered include: localized infection, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, bacterial endocarditis, acid reflux, herpes virus, hepatitis B and D and coxsackie virus. Readers will learn to identify appropriate prophylactic and post-procedural antibiotic treatments, and be aware of specific procedures that may create a higher risk of infection.
