Q

Importance of Health history

A

1) the possible impact of certain systemic diseases, conditions, behavioral factors, and medications on periodontal disease, its treatment, and treatment outcomes;
(2) the presence of conditions that may require special precautions or modifications of the treatment procedure; and
(3) the possibility that oral infections may have a powerful influence on the occurrence and severity of a variety of systemic diseases and conditions
