NAFLD / NASH with impaired hepatic function

Dental riskmoderate

NAFLD (now often termed MASLD) is fatty liver disease associated with metabolic dysfunction; NASH/MASH is the inflammatory form that can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis. Most patients have obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension — these COMORBIDITIES drive dental risk more than fatty liver itself. Dental takeaway: NAFLD with normal liver function usually needs NO special changes; NAFLD/NASH with impaired function or advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis should be managed like hepatic impairment/cirrhosis (apply F1).

The full condition entry includes

  • Safe vs avoid lists: antibiotics, analgesics, local anesthetics
  • Vasoconstrictor limits and treatment modifications
  • Pre/intra/post-op monitoring and deferral criteria
