Resumo(s)
A doença celíaca é uma patologia intestinal crónica, causada pela intolerância ao glúten. É caracterizada por uma enteropatia mediada pelo sistema imunológico, associada a maioria dos nutrientes e vitaminas. Variadas são as manifestações orais encontradas nas crianças portadoras da doença celíaca, nomeadamente, defeitos do esmalte dentário, úlceras aftosas recorrentes, atraso da erupção dentária e glossite atrófica, entre outras. Os Médicos Dentistas podem desempenhar um papel importante no diagnóstico da doença, através da identificação e correcto encaminhamento ao especialista. Actualmente o único tratamento disponível é uma dieta sem glúten, mas existem novas perspectivas terapêuticas que poderão ser favoráveis aos portadores desta patologia. Este trabalho consiste numa revisão bibliográfica acerca da doença celíaca, aspectos históricos, prevalência,etiologia, manifestações sistémicas e em particular, as orais, com ênfase no diagnóstico precoce da patologia na população pediátrica.
Celiac disease is a chronic intestinal pathology caused by intolerance to gluten. It is characterized by an immune-mediated enteropathy, associated with severe difficulties with digestion and absorption of most nutrients and vitamins. Various oral manifestations are found in children with celiac disease in particular the dental enamel defects, recurrent aphthous ulcers, delayed tooth eruption, atrophic glossitis, among others. Dentists can play an important role in diagnosis, through the identification and proper referral to a specialist. Currently the only available treatment is a gluten free diet, but there are new therapeutic perspectives that may be favourable to patients with this pathology. This work consists of a literature review about celiac disease, historical aspects, prevalence, etiology, systemic manifestations and in particular the oral, with emphasis on early diagnosis of disease in the pediatric population.
