Abstract
It is imperative that a comprehensive dental examination should be performed in all patients who are to undergo a bone marrow transplantation. Such assessments should be carried out prior to and after the transplantation procedure. This paper addresses the implications of marrow transplantation and the impact on dental treatment. The side-effects of transplantation chemotherapy, radiation treatment and graft versus host disease and their impact on the oral cavity are also discussed in this paper
