Why this matters
Some dental cases need more than a dental chair.
Here, the hospital's teams work on it together.
Where your general health affects your dental treatment, that conversation happens between the departments before anyone picks up an instrument, rather than after something goes wrong.
Extractions and surgery for patients on blood thinners, and for hearts that need clearing first.
Implants, gum treatment and healing that depend on blood sugar being under control.
Dental treatment during pregnancy, planned with the obstetric team rather than postponed.
Facial pain and nerve conditions that need a neurologist before a dentist.
Safe dentistry for patients on dialysis, where drug doses and timing both change.
Shared care where medication, stones or infection touch both departments.
Dental clearance before radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and care of the mouth during it.
The physician who reviews the whole patient before a long procedure begins.
Full-mouth work in one sitting, for patients who cannot be treated awake.
General surgery, orthopaedics, ENT and every other department in the building.
