Desmineralização dentária de pacientes respiradores orais submetidos à expansão maxilar

Abstract: Mout h breathing may cause deformities on the dental arch and be a risk factor for caries and periodontal disease; fixed orthodontic appliances compound the problem.Aim: to evaluate mineralization of tooth enamel and the oral cariogenic microbiota of mouth breathers that are using maxillary expanders.Material and method: a prospective study of 20 mouth-breathing patients with maxillary atresia, aged from 09 to 13 years. Enamel mineralization was measured using a fluorescence technique, before installing the ex… Show more

“…[ 8 , 21 ] Mouth breathing may cause gingival surface dehydration, decreased epithelial resistance to bacterial plaques, and limit salivary auto-cleaning. [ 27 ] Certain immunological and inflammatory reactions have been reported to interplay between AR and these dental diseases. [ 11 , 12 , 28 ] Mast cells play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of AR.…”
