Abstract
Tuberculosis, a chronic bacterial infection, once thought to have been eliminated, has re-emerged as a disease threat, causing health care professionals to evaluate the treatment of those infected. This article provides information on the transmission of the disease, infection and active disease, and recommendations for evaluating patients in the dental setting.
