“…Moreover, the psychiatrist did not elaborate about the assessment tools he used to rule out other psychiatric conditions, and was difficult to contact or reach as electronic records and shared health network are not established between different hospitals yet. Although the patient was referred for scaling and root planning (SRP), and was given oral hygiene instructions, a thorough periodontal evaluation and management were not carried out despite the increase susceptibility to periodontal disease noted in patients with psychiatric conditions due to poor oral hygiene or as a result of the use of xerogenic medications [ 21 ]. In addition to SRP, innovative and safe non-surgical periodontal approaches, such as the use paraprobiotics, can be explored as recent clinical trials concluded that paraprobiotics, in forms of toothpaste or mouth washes, reduces the oral periodontal pathogens load through various mechanisms [ 22 ].…”

Background. Delusional parasitosis (DP) is a monosymptomatic hypochondriacal psychosis where the patient has the delusion of being infested with parasites, whereas Morgellons disease (MD) is described when the patient has fixed ideation of fibers or other materials emerging from skin. Both psychological and organic causes can result into the delusion of infestation, and careful examination is required to exclude secondary causes. Oral DP can result in self-inflected mutilations of the oral mucosa. To our knowledge, oral DP is only rarely reported in the literature. Here, we describe and discuss the management of a case of overlap between oral DP and oral MD at the oral medicine (OM) clinic. Case Report. A 50-year-old male presented to the OM clinic with ulcerations of oral and perioral tissues. Patient reported inflicting wounds to himself using a shaving blade to extirpate worms and pieces of glass from underneath his oral and perioral mucosa. Clinical and laboratory investigations ruled out parasitic infestations. Self-inflected ulcers were treated with topical steroids and prophylactic antifungals, and the patient was referred for psychiatric evaluation. A diagnosis of primary DP was reached, and the patient was managed with antipsychotics. Practical Implications. Oral health care providers should be familiar with oral manifestations of psychiatric disorders and should be able to manage such patients in a multidisciplinary team of internist, dermatologist, and psychiatrist.

“…For studies that did not directly report on periodontal disease, prevalence data were derived from results on CPI, where available. Nine studies reported on the prevalence of periodontal disease using CPI (26,29,30,32,33,35,37,41). A CPI score of ≥1 was defined as the presence of periodontal disease.…”

Background: Periodontal disease represents a global public health concern, with a disproportionate burden being borne by vulnerable populations. One such group is people with severe mental illness (SMI), and this study examined whether periodontal health is poorer in people with SMI than the general population. Methods: We conducted a systematic search for studies published before March 2021 on the periodontal health of people with SMI using the following databases: PubMed, PsycINFO, EMBASE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Chongqing VIP. Outcomes were periodontitis, periodontal disease, and shallow and deep periodontal pockets. Results were compared with the general population. Results: Seventeen studies had sufficient data for a random-effects meta-analysis, consisting of 4404 psychiatric patients and 95,411 controls. SMI was associated with an increased prevalence of periodontitis (odds ratio = 1.97, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.15-3.35) compared with the general population. People with SMI had 4.28 the odds of having periodontal disease compared with controls (95% CI = 2.54-7.21). They also had 3.65 the odds of shallow pockets (95% CI = 1.80-7.42) and 2.76 the odds of deep pockets (95% CI = 1.10-6.93). Conclusions: Our findings highlight the increased prevalence and severity of periodontal disease in people with SMI. Oral health is often considered the gateway to overall health and should be a public health priority for this population.
