title: Head and neck pathology interactions with clinical outcomes.
abstract: The relationships between craniofacial and other medical pathologies are not always obvious but may be very significant as they influence the extent of disease, accuracy of differential diagnoses, treatment schedules, and appropriateness and utilization of health-care resources. Among the relationships discussed are periodontal and endodontic infections, bacteremias and antibiotics, iatrogenics, viral and fungal infections, oncological interactions, temporomandibular joint disease, dental implants, antidepressant therapy, psychiatric and neurological influences, and dental restorations.
