چکیده
There are multiple interactions between rheumatology and oral medicine. Three overlapping areas will be covered in this lecture: (1) Oral manifestations of rheumatic disease. Several rheumatic diseases have prominent manifestations in the oral cavity, head and neck. Because these manifestations tend to be nonspecific, the underlying condition may go unrecognized unless the oral surgeon suspects the correct diagnosis and implements referral. (2) Neck problems that should be of concern to the oral surgeon. Rheumatic diseases may result in neck problems that pose specific risks during the performance of dental procedures. (3) Effects of antirheumatic medications. Certain medications used in rheumatology may result in oral lesions and others interfere with hemostasis.
