%X When a patient with chronic liver disease due to a hepatitis C virus infection presents with a dental emergency, it is important to identify whether the patient is under good medical management, if severe liver dysfunction exists, or if the patient is with active hepatitis. If records are not available, contacting the patient's physician to obtain the necessary information is prudent. If the source of infection is odontogenic, extraction should not be delayed. Patients with stable chronic liver disease can safely undergo dental extractions with some modifications to the dental treatment plan.
