Clinicians should distinguish between hereditary and non-hereditary angioedema, as management of patients varies significantly with each. As many patients with hereditary angioedema have had serious episodes of edema associated with dental procedures, it is important that dentists understand the nature of this disease and its treatment. The potential for airway obstruction by laryngeal edema requires a knowledge and preparedness for initiation of life-support measures.
临床医生应区分遗传性血管性水肿和非遗传性血管性水肿，因为针对这两种病症的患者治疗方法有很大差异。由于许多遗传性血管性水肿患者曾因牙科手术出现严重水肿发作，所以牙医了解这种疾病的本质及其治疗方法很重要。喉水肿导致气道阻塞的可能性要求具备启动生命支持措施的知识和准备。
