“…The results were consistent with other studies. [30][31] The proposed explanation was that oral hygiene negligence was due to the patients' poor level of education and low socioeconomic status. Also, renal haemodialysis is a time-consuming procedure and requires multiple sessions of prolonged duration which significantly compromises the patient's lifestyle .…”

Objectives: To assess the oral findings among a group of Egyptian pediatric patients at End-Stage Renal Disease either on haemodialysis or after kidney transplantation. Subjects and Methods: A total number of 84 pediatric patients from April 2019 till October 2019 were recruited. A comprehensive oral examination was performed for both soft and hard oral tissues and the following outcomes were assessed: dental caries, enamel hypoplasia, oral candidiasis, and gingival hyperplasia. Patients were classified into: group I represents the haemodialysis group and group II represents the kidney transplantation group. Results: In both groups, 17 were caries affected (20 %) and 67 were caries-free (80%). The percentage of enamel hypoplasia was reported in 25% of both groups. The percentage of gingival enlargement among group I was 3.4 % while 16.7 % in group II. Oral candidiasis was not encountered in all study participants. Conclusion: End-Stage Renal Disease patients are in an essential need for an awareness program to encourage maintenance of oral hygiene and other measures such as a balanced diet and proper hydration.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of a salivary phosphate binder "Chitosan" in a chewable form on serum and salivary levels of phosphate, calcium and urea in a group of hyperphosphatemic, hemodialysis pediatric patients suffering from end stage renal disease. Subjects and Methods: The study comprised 30 children on hemodialysis; (14 males and 16 females), aging 7-16 years, selected from the hemodialysis units of Al-Azhar University Hospitals. All the children chewed chitosan loaded chewing gum for one hour, twice daily, during the fasting hours between meals throughout the trial period (3 months), while maintained on oral phosphate binders. Results: There was a statistically significant decrease in the mean serum levels of phosphate and urea as well as an increase in serum calcium means levels. There was a significant decrease in mean levels of salivary phosphate and urea and increase in mean levels of salivary calcium. Conclusion:Chitosan loaded chewing-gum can be safely and effectively used for management of hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis pediatric patients, as an addition to the oral phosphate binders.
