Abstract

Dental specialists in Saudi Arabia see an expanding number of patients with systemic conditions. The association between dental conditions and systemic diseases is a known factor, and the knowledge in treating such systemically compromised patients due to the changes occurring in the oral cavity is needed for better diagnosis and treatment. Hence this cross-sectional survey was conducted to know the knowledge and attitude of dental practitioners regarding the association of oral health and systemic diseases in Riyadh.

Keywords: Knowledge, Oral health, Systemic diseases.
