AB  - KEY  CONCEPTS  Oral  health  is  a  growing  global  concern  because  of  its  effect  on  quality  of  life,  morbidity,  and  mortality.Dental  caries  and  periodontal  disease  are  examples  of  oral  health  conditions  that  have  significant  impact  on  patients’  overall  health  status.Tooth  loss,  periodontal  disease,  dental  caries,  and  denture  use  have  associations  with  morbidity  and  mortality  risk.Chronic  hyperglycemia  may  cause  various  acute  or  chronic  oral  complications  that  may  increase  risk  of  worsening  glycemic  control  or  developing  other  systemic  complications  of  diabetes.Diabetes  and  periodontal  disease  have  a  bidirectional  relationship  on  glycemic  control  and  periodontal  disease.Medications  used  in  treatment  of  cardiovascular  diseases  have  adverse  effects  that  can  affect  oral  health.Periodontal  disease  is  shown  to  increase  inflammatory  markers  that  may  worsen  the  progression  of  a  patient’s  cardiovascular  status,  but  no  profound  association  can  be  made  on  the  reduction  of  cardiovascular  risk  with  the  treatment  of  periodontal  disease.Patients  with  respiratory  conditions  such  as  asthma  and  COPD  are  at  an  increased  risk  of  dental  caries,  periodontal  disease,  dental  erosion,  and  oral  candidiasis.Xerostomia,  acidity  of  saliva  and  the  oral  biofilm,  and  the  deposition  of  added  lactose  in  inhalers  contribute  to  poor  oral  health  of  patients  with  respiratory  conditions.Patients  with  mental  health  conditions  are  more  likely  to  suffer  from  dental  caries,  tooth  loss,  and  oral  lesions.Poor  oral  health  in  patients  with  mental  health  conditions  may  result  from  poor  oral  hygiene,  lack  of  motivation,  cost,  and  barriers  to  accessing  dental  care.Oral  health  disparities  are  noted  across  patients’  lifespans  as  a  result  of  age,  access  to  dental  coverage,  income,  education,  and  race/ethnicity.National  and  local  initiatives  have  been  created  to  increase  awareness,  education,  and  access  for  oral  healthcare  for  all  Americans.Nondental  healthcare  professionals,  including  pharmacists,  can  play  an  integral  role  in  educating  patients  on  oral  health  as  it  pertains  to  oral  health  diseases,  systemic  diseases,  and  medication-related  adverse  effects.
