DA SILVA SANTOS, Graziele Beanes et al. Profile systemic and oral manifestations in patients with hypothyroidism. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 2012, vol.49, n.2, pp. 146-157. ISSN 0034-7507.

The hypothyroidism is an endocrine disorder characterized by the systemic character of the thyroid gland dysfunction. The T3 and T4 thyroid hormones are necessary to fulfill with the normal functions of the physical body. Thus, the alterations in the T3 and T4 secretion may be associated with changes in the stomatognathic system. Among the changes are included the condylar hypoplasia, the mandibular or maxillary atresia, the underdeveloped mandible, the hypoplasia of the enamel and the dentine, the taurodontism and the delay of dentition as well as the radicular development. Thus, it is essential that stomatologist know on the local or systemic manifestations associated with this endocrine disorder. The aim of present paper is to approach the systemic and oral changes in patients presenting with hypothyroidism, as well as the better management and care applied during the dental treatment. The data collection was thorough the selection of articles published on the oral manifestations in patients presenting with hypothyroidism in large databases like Bireme, Scielo and Medline. The hypothyroidism is a common system disease that occasionally have oral manifestations known by the stomatologists since they are patients needing special care during the stomatologic treatments. Also, must to be considered the drug interaction in these patients, since the drugs regularly prescribed in stomatology may to provoke adverse reactions. It is necessary that surgeon knows on the appropriate procedures in the treatment of hypothyroidism patients.
