The Patient- Risk Marker for Medical Emergencies in the Dental and Oral Surgery Office

Abstract

Systemic vision on the case is clinically essential to understanding the particulars involved in the patient, allowing the detection of potential factors which could cause emergency dental office. Therapeutic attitude must be individualized for each case, linking data obtained through the clinical case history and paraclinical exams, to obtain favorable results. The interdisciplinary approach allows the patient's knowledge of systemic pathology associated with the medication followed and the particularities that dental treatment involves. The main sources of medical emergencies in the dental office are lacunar evaluations of the patients' constants, spontaneous neuro-psychical reactions, or a lack of special training of the medical staff. Our study was performed on 1680 patients. The level of installed medical emergencies was 3, 85% distributed as come: 38% vaso-vagal syncope,35% cardio-vascular emergencies, 11% allergic emergencies, 9% neurologic emergencies, and 7% other emergencies .
