ABSTRACT
With increasing rates of asthma in the general population, dental professionals need to be able to recognize the signs and symptoms of poorly controlled asthma and modify dental treatment accordingly. Prevention of an acute asthma exacerbation is key. Patients should be reminded to bring their rescue inhaler with them to every dental appointment. Patients who are using inhaled corticosteroids to manage their asthma are at greater risk of oral candidiasis, xerostomia, and caries. Regular dental visits and good oral hygiene are important among this population.
