If you have heart disease or have had a stroke it is imperative to inform your oral health care provider of your condition. Here are some valuable tips

Heart Disease

If you are a patient with heart disease, you are most likely prescribed anticoagulant medications. If you are taking these types of medications, it is important to notify your oral health care provider due to the danger of excessive bleeding during a procedure.

If you have experienced heart failure and are prescribed diuretics, note that these medications will cause dry mouth. Dry mouth can lead to growing bacteria in the mouth which can enter the body. Your Hillcrest Dental professional offers the most advanced solutions for dry mouth. Please don’t hesitate to inquire about dry mouth treatment with the team at Hillcrest Dental.
