Abstract: (5407 Views)
Bone marrow transplant (BMT) has increasingly become a common treatment option for patients whom has their bone marrow affected directly or indirectly by any disease. Because of the level of immunosuppression achieved in BMT, any problems the pediatric patient presents in their oral cavity can become life- threatening and increase the length of hospital stay, the patients discomfort and the treatment cost. This paper discusses the important and unique role that pediatric dentistry has in the multi professional bone marrow transplantation team to help bring out a successful outcome through the prevention and treatment of the acute oral complications often seen in these patients.
