Pharmacotherapy for hypertension.
Clinicians, in general, must understand the basis of hypertension, management principles, and complications. They must recognize that these patients require multidisciplinary treatment and coordination of care. Oral health care providers must remember that hypertension may produce adverse effects on various organ systems and management of the dental needs of these patients may require modification of routine treatment.
