Role of saliva in the caries experience and calculus formation of young patients undergoing hemodialysis

Abstract: A significant number of children and adolescents undergoing hemodialysis are candidates for kidney transplantation and should receive complete pre-transplant dental exams and dental treatment. Our results open the way for the development of an individualized dental protocol for these patients with preventive measures and treatment of the poor oral health in HD patients.

“…As stated previously, prophylactic antibiotic therapy is therefore indicated for transplant patients before invasive dental procedures are performed. 45 Moreover, prolonged corticosteroid therapy may necessitate the administration of a supplementary dose in stressful situations, for example, during dental procedures, to prevent an adrenal crisis. The most recent guidelines recommend a dose of 25 mg of hydrocortisone via the intravenous route prior to an intervention.…”

“…Due to the multi-stage character of the ion exchange, the mineral groups and complexes (phosphates) should be retained for a long time within the oral cavity and should be in contact with the dental enamel [1,6,[48][49][50]. As shown, this could be realised only under an endogenous supply of the ions [34,35,51].…”

“…It is well known that excessive levels of calcium and phosphates in mixed saliva result in a rapid deposition of calcium phosphates in the form of mineral phases on the surface of enamel, which hinders normal remineralisation [6]. A short-term increase in the concentration over the standard values stipulates the deposition and formation of foreign calcium phosphates resulting in the limited permeability of substances through the biofilm, the origin of dental deposit, and enhanced enamel solubility.…”
