Abstract :
Background: Celiac disease is a condition characterized by a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. Any organ can be affected and, oral manifestations of celiac disease have been described. A close correlation between celiac disease (CD) and oral lesions has been reported. The aim of this study was to assess prevalence of dental enamel defects, recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) in a well defined cohort of patients with CD in north western part of India. Method: A case control study involving 40 cases of celiac disease (age ranged 12–30 years) and 40 healthy individuals of same age group. A detailed history including oral and systemic examination was done. Celiac disease was confirmed by both serologically and histopathologically. Results: Dental enamel defects had higher prevalence (42.5% cases) compared to controls (5%). Frequency of RAS in the CD group was also significantly higher than that in controls (40% vs. 10%) Conclusion: This study confirms that oral manifestations are common in celiac disease. There is increased risk of dental enamel defects and RAS in CD in comparison to control group.
