title: [Clinical manifestations of hematological non-neoplastic diseases in Dentistry].
abstract: Systemic disease can cause clinical manifestations in the oral and maxillofacial area, which is important to recognize because it could be the first symptom of an undiagnosed illness. There are different oral signs that could suggest the clinician a blood disorder, such as pallor, petechiae, ecchymosis, ulcerations, gingival hypertrophy or spontaneous gingival bleeding. In addition, blood disorders will determine the dental management of these patients and the protocol for limiting possible complications that may arise due to the treatment itself. This paper reviews the oral manifestations and dental management of non-neoplastic alterations of red cells, white cells and hemostasis, with emphasis on two-way relationship that must exist between the dentist and the patient's hematologist for making a treatment plan.
