description | Infective endocarditis (IE) is a rare but life-threatening disease. Invasive dental treatment (IDT) can produce temporary bacteremia, so they are considered as potential risk factors for IE. The physicians should pay attention to the possibility of IE, when patients have fever of unknown origin after IDT. Streptococcus gordonii is one of the common colonization bacteria in periodontal environment. A case of infective endocarditis caused by Streptococcus gordon after tooth extraction was reported. This case suggests an important link between IE and IDT. |
