Odontological management of the patient with arterial hypertension


Dental considerations • Know meds to avoid interactions
• Reduce stress and anxiety + Avoid long stressful appointments.
• BDZ = 2-5mg at night and 2-5 mg 1 hour before.
• Some clinics have nitrous oxide.
• Slow changes of posture of the patient, slowly elevate the patient after treatment
• Make sure patient doesn’t get up too fast if they have BP problems
• More common to have nausea and vomiting in these patients
Associated oral disease • CCBs gingival hyperplasia e.g. nifedipine
• Diuretics à dry mouth
• Really high BP à bleed more during surgery therefore we wait more after anesthetising so vasoconstrictor work
Lichenoid reactions
• Enalapril ace inhibitor
• Antimalarials
• CCBs
• NSAIDS

Interactions • NSAIDS à reduce anti-hypertensive effect.
• N and V common
• Anti-hypertensives and barbiturates and sedatives = doctors problem = know and be aware of interaction.

2. Patient management protocol = kidney pathology
Symptoms • Generalized swelling due to fluid retention
• Metallic flavour of the mouth
• Sensitivity decrease – more important in diabetic patient
• Nausea and vomiting
• Prolonged bleeding, bruising
• Halitosis
• AHT – arterial hypertension.
• Wound delayed cicatrisation (healing) – problems after exos and implants
Protocol Position of the seat,
Dialysis patient = semi reclined
Seat • Pauses during trx
• The patient with chronic renal failure usually presents arterial hypertension
• Monitor the arterial tension on other arm as arterior venous fistula.
• Analgesics = avoid aspirin or any medicine with anti-prostaglandins that induce nephrotoxicity. – increases the chances of
bleeding and is most common in patients under haemodialysis
• Cultures and antibiotic sensitivity against oral infections
Antibiotic • Antibiotic prophylaxis in patients undergoing haemodialysis
• With renal failure, the total dose of antibiotics should be reduced to avoid toxicity.
• Penicillin can be used – e.g. amoxicillin, following formula. E.g. skinny girl 500mg, average normal guy 750mg, 90-100 kg 1gram
of amoxicillin.
• Avoid tetracyclines because of their catabolic effect, nitrogen retention.
• Do not use aminoglycosides or cephalosporins because of their nephrotoxic effect
• Avoid benzylpenicillin and carbenicillin because of its high sodium and potassium content that can produce cardio and
neurotoxic effects.
• Get adequate sleep the night before
stress
• Short appointments
• Dialysis patients should be scheduled the morning after the haemodialysis (heparin 8H)
• Caution with CNS depressant drugs in patients with uremia ( Chronic renal failure)
• Sedation with nitrous oxide, is an excellent anxiolytic and will be accepted by renal patient.
• Use rubber dam for routine treatment
• Antibiotic prophylaxis in immunosuppressed patients 9trsp) or in haemodialysis
• Treat oral infections early to avoid complications
• Adjust the dose of the antibiotics based on GFR.
• Frequent infection and delay in healing.
• Avoid haemorrhagic treatment at 8h after haemodialysis
• Recent analytic – to check blood levels
• Microfibrillar collagen sponge, topical thrombin and adequate suture in minor surgery.
• Suture for simple extraction e.g. simple suture, x suture, buccal palatal, buccal palatal, then knot in palatine.

5. Dental management of pregnant women
1st trimester • 50% spontaneous abortions (due to egg alterations, maternal causes, external aggressions)
• Possible teratogenic effects
• (before 2 weeks of gestation = death of the egg,
• between the 2nd week and 2nd month = important organic defects End of the first trimester = small organic defects).
• 1st trimester reduced arterial hypertension (bradycardia)
2nd trimester • Growth of foetal structures and maturation of organs.
Best time to treat • No teratogenic but toxic effects
• Best trimester for treatments
3rd trimester • Toxic effect
• Maximum size
• Possibility of provoking/advancing labour.
• In third trimester avoid lying the women down, due to hypotensive dorsal decubitus syndrome.
Hypotensive dorsal by compression of the uterus on the vena cava inferior taking down the blood pressure, bradycardia, sweating, nausea, loss of
decubitus syndrome conscience.
Special precaution • Change of habits, change of hours periods of anorexia, and excess apetitie
• Sialorrea
digestive • Nausea and voming common
• By hormones increased oestrogen HCG, progesterone, 1st week
• Immune changes
• Changes in habits; pregnant women eat more - increased carbohydrate intake, increase of salivation, nausea and vomits
respiratory • Increased breathing – tachypnoea
• Dyspnoea ( > in the last week> lying down)
Hormonal gingival and perio
Gestational choasma during second half of pregnancy- brownish colour in eyes and maxilla due to melanocytes increasing ACTH.
Gingivitis • 50-100%
• Starts in 2nd month until 8th month
• Clinically of colour red, increased volume, smooth surface which is bright, random bleeding/
• Papilla hipertroficia and seudobolsas
Immunological • Reduction of T lymphocytes - CD3 and CD4

Protocol Management in the clinic of the epileptic patient
1. Eliminate triggers factor (light, noises, anxiety)
2. Appointment after taking meds
3. No NSAIDs, increased risk of haemorrhage, metabolism hepatic. NO administering erythromycin or propoxifeno to patients that
take carbamazepine.
4. Put back space edentulous, protesis fixed, metallic posterior and resin in anteriors. Avoid removable dentures. Resin easier to fix
than porcelain.
5. Use mouth openers
Protocol in epileptic - Remove all dental instruments and materials
crisis - Remove removable prosthetic or orthodontic appliances
- Place supine, on the couch or on the floor
- Avoid hitting the head or limbs
- Separate objects with which the patient may be damaged
Specific measures - Place a guedel cannula or rubber wedges in the mouth – we have various sizes, try and insert without putting the fingers in the
mouth
- Place the head to the side
- Aspirate secretions and saliva if possible
- Keep the airway area clear
Therapeutic measures • If the crisis lasts more than 5 minutes
during a seizure • Ensure adequate ventilation - Administer oxygen with mask.
• Administer benzodiazepine:
• Intravenous route: diazepam 10-20 mg in adults 0.1-0.3 mg / kg in children
• Rectal route: diazepam (10-20 mg).
• If epileptic seizures persist after 15 minutes, the patient should be transferred to a Hospital Emergency Department
Action before an • Measures in the postcritical phase of epileptic seizures
epileptic crisis • Monitor respiratory rate
• Assess the degree of wakefulness and orientation
• Administer IV 1 ampoule of 50% glucose
• Administer 100 mg of thiamine IV if alcoholism
• Diazepam effect can be reversed with flumazenil (Anexate)
• Local priests if oral or lingual wound

Exos in patient treated • 3 to 6 weeks BEFORE RT – even better to do exos 6 weeks before.
with radio • 8 months to a year AFTER RT – 8-12 months after before we can do exos again.
• Implants 2 years later
• ANESTHESIA WITHOUT VASOCONSTRICTOR (Post.) - before you can, after radio only without adrenalin due to devascularisation.
• CURETEAR ALVEOLO
• SUTURE – after exos
• RESPECT THE PERIOSTIO – If we break or damage it during exos, we get more complications.
• Don’t need to give antibiotics before exo.
• ATB COVERAGE always post – 1 week 700mg amoxic/8 h
• ANTISEPTIC ROUTINE. CHX daily.

How to avoid caries with o ORAL HYGIENE


radio o SEALS
o SODIUM FLUORIDE GEL 1%
o AVOID ACIDS
o Mouthwashes with CLX
o IRRIGATORS (waterpik – this brand) – very very useful
Fungal infections fungal infections

In these temporarily immunosuppressed patients, infections by opportunistic microorganisms are frequent.


We mainly use miconazole patients
In immune depressed patients we have to continue giving it for 2 weeks after

CANDIDA INFECTION

• Miconazole 2% oral gel


o Apply 4 times/ day
• Ketoconazole / 200 mg
o 1 tablet/2 times a day (21days)
• o Fluconazole150mg–50mg/8h

Trismus Physiotherapy and prevention are the best weapons to prevent this pathology. Consistency in exercises will greatly improve your
quality of life.

• EXERCISE OF CHEWING MUSCLES--------------à


• OPEN YOUR MOUTH AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE 20 TIMES (6 TIMES A DAY)à

The patient should continue to check regularly and avoid all types of carcinogens (tobacco, alcohol ...)

How long will we see the patient during radiotherapy, we should see them once a week, we can find a really big change from one
week to the next week. Mandatory to see the patient weekly, take pictures and re-assess the mouthwash.

All treatments Big infection, intense pain, trauma – Send to hospital
URGENT cases

HBA 1 c • NORMAL 4.1-5.5% • PREDIABETES between 5.6% and 6.4% • DIABETES greater than 6.5%

More caries lack of saliva + higher amount of glucose in those tissues


Higher perio glucose in the sulcus
Burning mouth synd due to sensitive alteration due to polyneuropathy affecting sensitive nerve terminations
More infections bacterial, fungal, oral infection.
Bidirection badly controlled diabetes = more oral infections. + more infections will affect diabetes
infection
Diabetes V linchen Linchen planus patients we should always ask for diabetes tests in these patients as many times patietns that suffer lichen planus also
planus have diabetes which has not been diagnosed. Strong relation between diabetes and lichen planus also another relation is oral anti-diabetic
medication and lichen planus.
Protocol Hours - morning appointments are recommended since endogenous cortisol levels are generally higher.
Diet – after breakfast
Monitor blood glucose
Anxiolytics: benzodiazepines. Alprazolam, lorazepam.
Antibiotic treatment AFTER extensive surgery (7 days). – ALWAYS give + suture. Not prophylaxtic antibiotic only after ALWAYS.
