Abstract:
Oral medicine is "the discipline of dentistry concerned with the oral health care of medically complex patients, including the diagnosis and primarily nonsurgical treatment and/or management of medically related conditions affecting the oral and maxillofacial region."

Further evidence, as it becomes available, should be reviewed on a regular basis to guide our clinical practice.
