 : Cardiovascular Disease and Dental ConsiderationsCardiovascular disease i
 s one of the major diseases affecting adults in the U.S. While mortality f
 rom heart disease has been declining steadily recently\, hospital admissio
 ns related to cardiovascular disease are on the rise due\, in part\, to ou

  heart failure in men and women. It is often asymptomatic and many times m

 ssional. This program will provide an overview of cardiovascular disease a

 encies during dental treatment. This program will provide participants wit
 h an overview of the most common substances of abuse\, along with their po
 tential contraindications to dental therapy and the resulting necessity\, 
 if any\, for dosage modifications of commonly used dental drugs. Using cas
