Elective Dental Care Should Be Deferred For Patients With Severe, Uncontrolled
Hypertension, Which Is Blood Pressure Of Greater Than Or Equal To 180/110 Mm Hg,
Until The Condition Can Be Brought Under Control.
A. 200/140 – This Represents An Extreme Hypertensive Crisis; However, The Clinical
Cutoff For Deferring Elective Dental Treatment Is Reached Earlier At 180/110 Mm Hg.
B. 180/140 – Although This Indicates Severe Hypertension, The Systolic/Diastolic
Threshold Used Clinically Is 180/110 Mm Hg; The Diastolic Value Here Exceeds That
Threshold But Is Not The Standard Criterion Cited.
D. 160/110 – This Blood Pressure Is Elevated But Does Not Meet The Definition Of
Severe, Uncontrolled Hypertension That Mandates Deferral Of Elective Dental Care.
