The dental management of patients with Brugada syndrome: A case series

Brugada syndrome is an inherited cardiovascular disorder, which can affect the rhythm of the heart. Dental treatment can often present as an obstacle for patients with Brugada syndrome as the use of local anaesthetic can have adverse effects on the electrical conduction system of the heart.The aim of this series is to discuss the aetiopathogenesis, presentation and management of Brugada syndrome and its relevance to dentistry and the dental team.The authors present a series of three Brugada syndrome patients who underwent dental intervention in a hospital setting.The series highlighted the importance of multidisciplinary care for patients with Brugada syndrome. Liaising with other teams, such as cariologists and GMPs, allows a patient centred approach and better understanding of patient management.
