Abstract

<p>In the surgery to detain artificial materials including prosthetic replacement and the artificial joint replacement in the body, bacteria possibly attach to the artificial body surface, and the risk of postoperative infection will increase. Once postoperative infection develops after surgery, the patients suffer a severe disadvantage. Those with periodontitis are more likely to allow bacteria to invade their blood vessel, hence the importance of oral management. Therefore, it is necessary to receive dentistry as soon as possible when operation is determined. The measures that increase the risk of developing bacteremia, such as the tooth extraction, should be done before surgery.</p>
