Abstract(s)
Introdução: Actualmente, um dos problemas que em maior grau afectam e dificultam o perfeito funcionamento do corpo humano, num elevado número de indivíduos, dizem respeito às diversas doenças que afectam o aparelho digestivo. A doença de Crohn e a colite ulcerosa são as que apresentan maiores manifestações extra-intestinais com atingimento da cavidade oral e, como consequência diminuindo a qualidade de vida dos individuos que padecem desta doença.
Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo foi descrever as manifestações e sintomatologia oral presentes na doença inflamatória intestinal.
Materiais e Métodos: A amostra foi selecionada no Hospital Geral de Viseu, em Viseu, Portugal, sendo constituída por 30 indivíduos adultos de ambos os géneros. Foram avaliadas as cavidades orais dos pacientes para registrar a presença de manifestações orais da doença. Foram ainda obtidos dados referentes ao tipo de alimentação e actividade da doença inflamatória intestinal.
Resultados: Em pacientes com doença inflamatória intestinal as manifestações orais como a cárie dentária e a gingivite foram observadas com maior frequência, seguidas pelas úlceras aftosas; a lingua geográfica foi a única manifestação asociada a pacientes com colite ulcerosa. A sintomatologia mais frequente foram a xerostomia e o sabor ácido em doentes em fase activa da doença, sem se demostrar diferenças entre a doença de Crohn e colite ulcerosa.
Conclusão: Foi possível descrever e associar as manifestações e sintomalogia oral em pacientes com doença inflamatória intestinal. Estas manifestações são mais frequentes na fase activa da doença.
Introduction: Currently, one of the problems that affects and hinders the perfect functioning of the human body in a large number of individuals, corresponds to the digestive system represented by the various diseases that affect it. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are the ones with the greatest extraintestinal manifestations reaching the oral cavity and consequently impairing the quality of life of the individuals suffering from this disease. Aim: The objective of the present study was to describe the manifestations and oral symptomatology present in inflammatory bowel disease. Materials and Methods: The sample was selected at the General Hospital of Viseu, in Viseu, Portugal, and consisted of 30 adult individuals of both sexes. Oral cavities were evaluated for the presence of oral manifestations. Data were also obtained regarding the type of diet and activity of inflammatory bowel disease. Results: In patients with inflammatory bowel disease, oral manifestations such as dental caries and gingivitis were observed more frequently, followed by aphthous ulcers; the geographical tongue was the only manifestation associated with patients with ulcerative colitis. The most frequent symptoms were xerostomia and acid taste in patients on the active phase of the desease, without showing differences between Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis. Conclusion: It was possible to describe and associate the manifestations and oral symptomatology in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. These manifestations were more frequent in the active phase of the disease
