The team at TPCH are getting to the root of dental health problems for our eligible patients! 🦷
A new TPCH Dental Clinic is now open for current inpatients who may have an urgent dental need that are impacting on their medical treatment whilst at TPCH.
One of our main cohorts are cardiac patients who may require sudden heart valve surgery and must be deemed 'dentally fit' before their treatment.
Dr Arnella and Dental Assistant Yuki share why it is important for our cardiac patients to be seen on site before surgery.
“We want to ensure there’s no active infection in the mouth that can go into the bloodstream and affect the new heart valves,” Dr Arnella said.
“Getting patients off campus for treatment is a complicated process, logistically it’s a lot safer to stay on site.”
