Diseases Bone Changes and changes in the Stomatognathic System Associated with Metabolic Endocrine Diseases
Abstract
Introduction: the prevalence of endocrine-metabolic diseases has increased in recent years due to improvement of the life expectancy of the population. Diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, hypoparathyroidism and hyperparathyroidism may present alterations in the stomatognathic system; however, some studies found in literature are still limited in this area.
Objective: to address the characteristics and pathophysiological process of these diseases, especially bone changes and in the stomatognathic system.
Methods: data were collected through the selection of articles about bone alterations of the stomatognathic system associated with hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, hyperparathyroidism, and diabetes, published in databases, BIREME, MEDLINE and SciELO.
Results: seventy three articles published between 1995 y 2012 were revised, and 40 were selected on the basis of their association with the topic of interest. It has shown that changes in serum levels of thyroid and parathyroid hormones, and diabetes mellitus have an impact on bone metabolism. Delays in tooth eruption and exfoliation, bone growth and development are observed in hypothyroidism, whereas decreased bone mineral density, jawbones osteoporosis, accelerated exfoliation of deciduous teeth and premature eruption of permanent teeth were observed in
hyperthyroidism. In hypoparathyroidism, there were osteosclerosis, hypoplastic teeth, and reduced bone remodeling. Intense osteoclastic activity, brown tumors and the absence of lamina dura in hyperparathyroidism may be observed. Diabetes mellitus can cause osteoporosis, periodontal disease and enamel hypoplasia. Although they are known, the magnitude and causes of these changes in the stomatognathic system are still unclear.
Conclusions: it is essential that dentist can recognize the local or systemic manifestations associated with these endocrine and metabolic disorders and help to early diagnosis and treatment.
