Hemodialysis (HD) can effectively minimise most of these complications (Chow and Peterson, 1979;Precious et al, 1981;Manton and Midda, 1986;Levy, 1988;Naylor et al, 1988;Ziccardi et al, 1992;De Rossi and Glick, 1996).…”

OBJECTIVES: A study of the dental, periodontal, oral mucosal and salivary condition of adult patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) receiving hemodialysis (HD). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 105 patients on HD were studied, together with 53 healthy age and sexmatched controls. Indices employed included carious, absent and obturated teeth index (CAO index), plaque index, calculus index and loss of periodontal attachment. Whole and parotid salivary secretions were also measured. RESULTS: The CAO index was not significantly higher among HD patients than controls (14.9 ؎ 8.7 vs 13.3 ؎ 7.9, respectively; t ‫؍‬ 1.1; P ‫؍‬ 0.3). However, plaque and calculus indices were significantly higher in HD patients (2.1 ؎ 0.8 and 2.3 ؎ 0.6, respectively) than controls (1.3 ؎ 0.8 and 1.6 ؎ 0.9) (P Ͻ 0.001). Loss of periodontal attachment was similar in both groups (4.9 ؎ 2.5 vs 4.2 ؎ 2.5 in the HD patients and controls, respectively) (t ‫؍‬ 1.8; P ‫؍‬ 0.07). There was no more oral mucosal pathology in HD patients than in controls (chi-square ‫؍‬ 5.8; P ‫؍‬ 0.3). Stimulated salivary secretion was significantly higher in controls than HD patients for both whole (t ‫؍‬ ؊5.2; P Ͻ 0.001) and parotid (t ‫؍‬ ؊2.6; P ‫؍‬ 0.01) salivas. CONCLUSIONS: The results show significantly higher plaque and calculus indices and lower salivary secretion among the HD patients than in healthy controls.

“…Untreated dental inflammation and infections may be a possible risk factor for infection and rejection in patients undergoing a kidney transplant, although there is not much published literature on this topic 32 . Thus, it may be important for patients undergoing a renal transplant to have infections treated and receive antibiotic prophylaxis 32,34 . Furthermore, these patients need to be on a strict periodontal maintenance program to prevent the development of inflammation, which can have a detrimental effect on the transplant.…”
