Abstract

The endocrine system consists of glands that produce hormones that may exert their effects at distant sites. Widespread problems may result when there is derangement of the system. Disorders may have a bearing on the management of a dental patient either in terms of the treatment itself or the provision of a specific method of anaesthesia.
