Caries among adult patients with controlled celiac disease: A cross‐sectional study

Abstract: Introduction Celiac disease (CD) is one of the most common chronic gastrointestinal disorders in the world. Currently, the literature about the dental profiles of patients with celiac disease is sparse and no studies have reported on the oral conditions and caries status of CD patients in Kuwait. Objective This study investigated the association between CD and caries experience. Methods Two groups were examined; study and control. The study group consisted of controlled celiac disease patients. The control gro… Show more

“…Results are conflicting with regard to the prevalence of caries. Some studies report a lower prevalence of caries in CD patients [15,20,41], while others report no difference in prevalence [19,42] or a higher prevalence compared to healthy controls [43,44]. Although not statistically significant, the patients in this study had a higher number of decayed dental surfaces.…”

“…A limited number of studies have investigated the involvement of the salivary glands in CD and the potential effect of a gluten-free diet on the salivary glands. A few studies have found reduced whole saliva flow rates in children with CD [15,16], whereas others found no differences in salivary flow rates between patients with CD and healthy controls [17][18][19][20]. One study, comparing minor salivary gland biopsies from patients with Sjögren's syndrome and patients with both Sjögren's syndrome and CD, demonstrated that the latter group had higher whole saliva flow rates and lower focal lymphocytic infiltration (focus score) in their salivary glands [21].…”

“…Khalaf’s research [ 82 ] involves adults with controlled CD and a CG without the disease. The results show that there are no significant differences in caries experience between the two groups, but the controlled celiac patients have fewer missing teeth than the CG [ 82 ].…”

“…Khalaf’s research [ 82 ] involves adults with controlled CD and a CG without the disease. The results show that there are no significant differences in caries experience between the two groups, but the controlled celiac patients have fewer missing teeth than the CG [ 82 ]. The research also includes salivary assessments such as stimulated and unstimulated salivary flow, saliva buffering capacity, and bacterial counts of lactobacilli and streptococci mutans [ 82 ].…”
