[Oral health following a stroke--three-month follow-up].
Cerebrovascular diseases with neurological deficits can be supposed to be a risk factor for oral health problems. 29 patients who were admitted consecutively to the Hospital of Enköping, Sweden, due to an acute history of stroke, were followed up with regard to their oral health at two weeks and at three months after admission. Only four patients had signs of a bad oral health, and three of them had dentures. There will be a long-term follow-up at 18 months after stroke.
