“…All the three case–control studies by Beriashvili, Nikolaishvili, Mantskava, Momtsemlidze, and Franchuk (), Saima, Tasneem, and Gowhar (), and Venkatesh Babu and Patel () were excluded because their subject populations consisted of only children or adolescents. In addition, periodontal measurements in the excluded studies were based solely on the presence of gingival inflammation (gingivitis), and there were no measurements of pocket depth or bone levels.…”

Aim The objective of this study was to assess the existing literature to determine if a relationship exists between hypothyroidism and periodontitis. Methods We used a modified approach to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses by searching five databases in addition to the gray literature. Keywords in the title and abstract fields, as well as subject headings for both periodontal disease and hypothyroidism, were used to search the existing literature for publications relevant to evaluation of the thyroid–periodontitis relationship. Results The authors screened 847 unique publications which, after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, yielded 29 publications, which were further analyzed for relevance and applicability. Most of the included papers were cross‐sectional studies and retrospective chart reviews. Following critical analysis, four publications, including one abstract, were used to further assess the hypothyroid–periodontitis relationship. Conclusions There are very few high‐quality studies describing the potential association between hypothyroidism and periodontitis. In general, and among the included papers with the fewest confounding factors, a positive relationship between hypothyroidism and periodontitis was found. Further well‐controlled, prospective clinical and immunologic studies will be required to confirm that relationship.

“…The clinical examination was done visually for each child under a good source of artificial light, using mouth mirror and a dental probe. The diagnosis was done According to the criteria published by the World Health Organization (WHO) (19) using dft index for deciduous teeth and DMFT index for permanent teeth (20,21) .The tooth was considered decayed if there is undermining of enamel, cavitation, softening in base or wall, temporary filling, recurrent caries and remaining root.…”

Oral Health Status of Children Undergoing Hemodialysis and Kidney Transplantation in Mansoura City, Egypt

Purpose: Evaluation of oral health status in children undergoing hemodialysis sessions and kidney transplantation and compared them with healthy children. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on 250 children aged 6-18 years old (100 children undergoing hemodialysis, 50 children undergoing kidney transplantation and 100 healthy children as a control group). The oral health status was evaluated regarding to caries experience, gingivitis using PMA index, developmental defects using modified DDE index. Un-stimulated salivary flow rate and pH were also measured. Results: caries experience was significantly lower in both chronic kidney disease (CKD) groups compared to control group. Median PMA was significantly higher in hemodialysis and in transplantation groups compared to control group. The prevalence of developmental enamel defects was 41% in hemodialysis group and 58% in transplantation group compared to 11% in control group (P-value < 0.001). Regarding to saliva analysis, the flow rate was higher among healthy children while the salivary PH was higher among children with CKD. Conclusions: chronic kidney disease may decrease caries experience, increase gingival inflammation, in addition to increase prevalence of developmental defects. Furthermore, children with chronic kidney disease have lower salivary flow rate and higher buffering capacity than healthy children.

“…The teeth display morphological abnormalities such as discrepancies between normal-sized teeth which appear to be too large for the very short dental arches, irregular teeth, and sometimes supernumerary teeth or even double rows of teeth. The frequency of cavities and gingival lesions is increased 13 .…”

Skeletal growth and maturation in children afflicted with major endocrine disorders

Orthodontic and dentofacial orthopedic strategies depend on both skeletal growth and maturation stages. In children, various parameters such as growth curves shown in the child's health record, pubertal changes, or skeletal maturation (using the vertebral maturation method) need to be evaluated. These elements allow the practitioner to choose the optimal moment to start treatment or to discontinue it. Endocrine disorders such as growth hormone variations, thyroid disorders, and pubertal issues could modify skeletal growth and maturation. Diagnoses and treatment of these pathologies affect maxillofacial growth and development. Thus, these pathologies should be taken into consideration during orthodontic and dentofacial orthopedic treatment in children.

Oral health status of children suffering from thyroid disorders

Abstract: Thyroid dysfunction (both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism) has impact on the oral health status. Children with thyroid disorders showed high prevalence of dental caries and periodontal disease compared to the control group.
