Brief Summary:
Eating disorders ED are common among young Anorexia AN and bulimia BN are the most prevalent ED The American Psychiatric Associations guidelines state a 03 AN prevalence among young girls and a 01 to 42 BN prevalence Men are not excluded even if ED are more frequent in females 14-18 years 1 man off to 10 can be diagnosed with ED Unfortunately the onset age is decreasing In the last few years always more preteens patients are diagnosed with ED they generally refer a garbled self perception of body image ED can have oral manifestations such as mucosal lesions dental erosion glandular hypertrophy xerostomia and salivary disorders dental caries These are the most common manifestations observed in patients with eating disorders after a routine dental visit There is not strong evidence that dental caries may be directly related to disordered eating habits as a matter of fact results are controversial Despite that all the studies examined agree on the association between signs listed above and food disorders Univocal percentages have not been reported in the scientific literature For instance a systematic review dated 2016 showed that dental erosion is diagnosed in 45 of ED people while other studies documented 70 patients affected by erosion Another example reported is teeth hypersensitivity According to some studies 56 of ED patients reported such complaints instead of other researches documenting 22 hypersensitivity impairment As for dental caries results are dissimilar Authors showed 78 ED subjects diagnosed with dental caries Other studies reported almost 50 patients with tooth decay without statistically significant difference in the values between ED people and controls All these differences are probably due to the different stages of eating disorders and diagnosis and oral signs found Different ages are also considered The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of oral cavity lesions among people affected by eating disorders
