State of dental care for patients with ischemic circulation by ischemic type

Abstract

Stroke is still one of the most frequent and severe impairment of the central nervous system. There are lots of papers devoted to early rehabilitation but none of them includes the protocol of patients’ dental rehabilitation. There is no consensus regarding the timing and volume of dental care for stroke survivors nowadays. Present paper provides an analysis of existing data on dental care to these patients. It is evident that a single secure workflow of providing dental care to patients with ischemic stroke does not exist, it is necessary to develop a standard of dental care for this group of patients.
