Today's periodontist is likely to come into contact with, be consulted about, or asked to treat a cancer patient. The periodontal evaluation and treatment of such a patient should reflect the changes in periodontium, the possibility of acute exacerbation of periodontal disease and systemic infection, oral changes, and the consequences and possible complications of radiation or chemotherapy, as well as the patient's overall health.
如今的牙周病医生很可能会接触到癌症患者、被咨询有关癌症患者的问题或被要求治疗癌症患者。对这类患者的牙周评估和治疗应反映牙周组织的变化、牙周疾病急性加重和全身感染的可能性、口腔变化、放疗或化疗的后果及可能的并发症，以及患者的整体健康状况。
