A Patient with a History of Right-Sided Stroke and Hemiplegia, in a Wheelchair, Presents with a Complaint of Upper Left Tooth Pain
Patients with a history of stroke often present with numerous neurologic deficits and varying degrees of disability. Ambulation problems requiring the use of a wheelchair can make accessing and receiving dental care difficult for these patients. Side effects from medications can compromise their oral health and complicate care. Possible dexterity limitations decrease their ability to maintain their oral health. Innovative care plans and adaptations may be needed to accommodate the needs of these patients but care generally can be provided safely and effectively in the outpatient dental setting.

A multi ‐centre randomised clinical trial of oral hygiene interventions following stroke—A 6‐month trial
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of two oral health promotion (OHP) programmes to reduce dental plaque levels following stroke. A multi‐centre randomised clinical control trial was conducted among patients hospitalised following stroke in Malaysia. Patients were randomly allocated to two OHP groups: (i) control group who received the conventional method for plaque control—daily manual tooth brushing with a standardised commercial toothpaste, (ii) test group—who received an intense method for plaque control—daily powered tooth brushing with 1% Chlorhexidine gel. Oral health assessments were performed a...

Risk for vascular events
Vascular diseases are among the leading causes of death in the United States, and oral health care providers need guidance as to when to treat patients who have recently experienced cerebral and cardiovascular events. Traditional recommendations are to postpone nonemergency dental procedures for up to 6 months after patients have a stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or acute myocardial infarction (MI). The basis for these recommendations is the inflammatory processes associated with the pathophysiology of vascular events, which may be exacerbated by surgery, infection, and/or bacteremia. The oral cavity can be a sour...

Use of floss/interdental brushes is associated with lower risk for new cardiovascular events among patients with coronary heart disease
ConclusionsThese findings suggest that flossing and brushing of interdental spaces might reduce the risk for new cardiovascular events among patients with CHD. The hypothesis that interdental cleaning per se reduces the risk of new cardiovascular events should be examined in an interventional study.

Dabigatran anticoagulation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common heart arrhythmia for which anticoagulant agents such as warfarin are prescribed. A recently licensed anticoagulant, dabigatran (Pradaxa), diminishes the risk of stroke or systemic emboli in patients with AF and those having joint replacement surgery. Adult patients with non-valvular AF with previous stroke, transient ischemic attack or systemic embolism, left ventricular ejection fraction less than 40%, symptomatic heart failure exceeding New York Heart Association class 2, or age over 65 years with diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease or hypertension are also candidates for dabigatran therapy.
