Abstract

In the context of dentistry, it is crucial to note that more than 60% of blood cultures obtained after oral surgical interventions and dental extractions have demonstrated the presence of anaerobic bacteria, indicating predominantly or mixed anaerobic bacteremia. Given this situation, current research seeks to identify the dental procedures with the highest risk of inducing bacteremia. The methodology used included a systematic review of the literature, thus ensuring the timeliness and relevance of the data collected. Additionally, the TOPSIS method was applied, a multi-criteria decision approach particularly suitable for handling complex situations involving several factors. The results revealed that dental implants and scaling and root planning were associated with a moderate risk, while oral surgery and periodontal treatment showed the highest risks, underscoring the need to implement rigorous preventive strategies. This study emphasizes the need to adapt prophylaxis and post-procedure management to the individual characteristics of the patient and the type of intervention performed, guiding towards the improvement of dental care and the implementation of more effective prevention protocols
