Endodontic treatment of first mandibular molar in patient who underwent heart bypass surgery: A case report

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease has become increasingly common. This must serve as a motivation for dentists to be aware of the modifications of treatment and precautions in patients suffering from cardiovascular disorders. The purpose of this case is to describe endodontic treatment on the right mandibular first molar in a 65-year-old woman followed with fiber post and zirconia-based crown with a medical history of cardiovascular disease and heart bypass surgery one year prior to dental treatment.
