[The status of the teeth and the need for dental care in heart surgery patients].
At the group of heart surgery patients treated at the department of dentoalveolar surgery, II. stomatological clinic, Prague, the author found out that more than 3/4 patients had required dental treatment. Focal infection of odontogenous origin was impossible to exclude nearly in 80% patients. For one patient requiring dental treatment it came to treat 4.5 teeth of males an 4.1 teeth of females. Mentioned numbers are warning finding especially for physicians that indicate patients to heart surgery and for surgeons that realize these surgeries.
