Oral Health in Children With Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a higher prevalence of dental caries and periodontal disease has been reported compared with healthy control subjects, but similar data on children are missing in the literature.We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of dental erosion, dental caries and periodontal disease in children with IBD.

Detailed Description
In this age- and gender-matched prospective case-control study, detailed questionnaires including nutritional habits and oral examinations were completed for 32 IBD patients aged 11 to 18 (15,53±2,00 yr) and 32 healthy controls based on the established criteria of the World Health Organization by the same pediatric dentist.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Dental caries [In one year]
In the present study WHO criteria were used to detect DMFT (decayed, missing and filled permanent teeth) scores
- Dental erosion [In one year]
Dental erosion status was determined with the basic erosive wear examination (BEWE) index
- Periodontal disease [In one year]
The patients' and controls' gingival condition was also scored according to the criteria of a Gingival Index (GI) System. The oral hygiene status was determined with the PCR index in order to assess the presence or absence of marginal plaque. The prevalence and the severity of periodontal disease were recorded with the CPITN after dividing the oral cavity into sextants.
- Oral extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) [In one year]
including the lip mucosa, buccal mucosa, gingiva; the palatal mucosa and oropharynx; the tongue dorsum, tongue ventrum, and floor of the mouth
