Abstract: Organ and bone marrow transplant represents a chance to life for the patients with end-stage diseases like terminal cardiac, hepatic, renal failure or leukemia, aplastic anemia and immune deficiency syndromes. The success of the transplantation procedure depends on the immune reactivity of the recipient patient, which may trigger the rejection or reject phenomena. The immunosuppressive drugs, administrated in the posttransplant phase have the role of preventing rejection, but they have also side effects, with implications throughout the body, including the oral cavity. The aim of this paper is to make the dentist aware of the particularities and special needs of organ and bone marrow transplant patients, in the context of the general medical aspects, the specific medication and the necessity of an effective dental treatment, which can play an important part in these patients' lives.
