pubmed:abstractText
Cardiac arrhythmias are not uncommon in dental practice, depending on many factors, including patient features, dental treatment and drugs administered. We describe a case of isolated atrial fibrillation (IAF) developed, in a young patient, soon after a supraperiosteal injection. The patient was admitted to hospital and recovered spontaneously. Since stress is a possible cause of IAF, this may has been triggered by endogenous and/or exogenous epinephrine. We highlight the need for careful preoperative evaluation, including anxiety assessment and treatment in all dental patients.
