Oral and Dental Conditions
Oral diseases and conditions are common and range from dental caries, periodontal conditions, dental abscess, acute bacterial infections, viral infections, fungal infections, traumatic injuries, tumors, and lesions affecting the maxillofacial region (perioral, jaws and face). Before doing oral examination or any dental procedures, patients should gurgle with hydrogen peroxide 3% or povidone iodine 2% to minimize infectious agent’s contamination between patient and oral health care provider.
