Managing dental patients with joint prostheses



JW Little
School of Dentistry, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis 55455.

A literature review explored the possible association of late infections of major joint prostheses and dental bacteremias. The review showed transient dental bacteremias had little or no role in causing late infections of prosthetic joint replacements. However, patients with certain systemic conditions or complications with their prostheses may be at greater risk for infection after transient dental bacteremias.
