“…Only 8.3% did not show any sign of periodontal disease. Another study carried out by Eltas et al (11), after performing a study with 53 psychiatric patients, with a medication which side effect was xerostomy or sialorrhea, concluded that there is a high risk for the development of periodontal disease in schizophrenic patients, and that such risk is even higher in patients that take a medication that causes a decrease in the flow of saliva. In terms of cavity indexes, 56.92% of the sample showed cavities, and 43.08% did not have any lesions of this kind.…”

“…For example, a recent review showed that stress and trauma (first and second hits), nutritional factors and vitamin D may play a role in schizophrenia [239]. The strong associations among schizophrenia and smoking [240], obesity [241], some atopic disorders [242], sleep disorders [243] and poor periodontal and oral health [244,245] may further contribute to the inflammatory burden in schizophrenia patients. Other factors, however, may be more specific to mood disorders than to schizophrenia.…”
