chapter 9 oral manifestations of systemic diseases Flashcards
excess hormone production by the anterior pituitary; caused by pituitary adenoma;
hyperpituitarism
____ results if it hyperpituitary occurs before the closure of long bones
gigantism
results when hypersecretion(hyperpituitarism) occurs during adult life
acromegaly
poor vision, light sensitivity, enlargement of hands and feet, increase in rib size
hyperpituiarism
enlargement of maxilla and mandible could cause separation of teeth and malocclusion; frontal bossing, enlagement of nasal bones may lead to deepening of voice
hyperpituitarism
thickened lips and macroglossia
hyperpituitarism
common cause is graves disease-autoimmune disorder in which a substance is produced that abnormally stimulates thyroid gland; other causes: hyperplasia of the gland, benign and malignant tumors of thyroid, pituitary gland disease , metastatic tumor
hyperthyroidism(thyrotoxicosis)
rosy complexion, erythema of palms, excessive sweating, fine hair, softened nails; exophthalmos; anxiety, weakness, restlessness, and cardiac problems
hyperthyroidism
premature exfoliation of deciduous teeth in children and premature eruption of permanent teeth; osteoporosis; caries and perio develop rapidly; burning tongue
hyperthyroidism
a decreased output of thyroid hormone causes developmental disturbances, autoimmune disease, iodine deficiency, drugs, and pituitary disease
hypothyroidism
when hypothy occurs in infancy and childhood
cretinism
when hypothy occurs in older children and adults
myxedema
in infants, thickened lips, enlarged tongue, delayed eruption of teeth
adults: enlarged tongue
hypothyroidism
increases the uptake of dietary calcium from the gi tract and is able to move calcium from bone to circulating blood when necessary
parathyroid hormone
hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia
hyperparathyroidism
may have join stiffness and pain; lethargy and coma with severe disease; loss of lamina dura, mottled bone;
radiolucencies; appear to be central giant cell
bone may have mottled appearance and loss of lamina dura
hyperparathyroidism
brown tumor
hyperparathyroidism
caused by rapid osteoclastic activity due to hyperparathyroidism, resulting in a local destructive phenomenon ; ends of long bones, pelvis and ribs, mandible
brown tumor
______ is the most common cause of secondary hyperparathyroidism
kidney failure
bones, stones, abdominal groans, psychic moans and fatigue overtones
hyperparathyroidism
a chronic disorder of carb metabolism characterized by abnormally high blood glucose levels
diabetes mellitus
a severe hyperglycemia can lead to
diabetic coma
ketone can be produced by the breakdown of
fatty acids- ketoacidosis lowers ph of blood
dark, thick, velvety skin in body folds and creases
acanthosis nigricans
thought to be autoimmune disease; insulin producing cells of pancreas are destroyed; 3-5% of all diabetic patients have this type;
insulin dependent diabetes mellitus
acute onset with polydipsia, polyuria, and polyphagia; require insulin all their lives
insulin dependent diabetes
low insulin can lead to
ketoacidosis
insulin resistance, 95% of all diabetic patients have this type of diabetes; obese; patients 35 to 40 years of age or older
non insulin dependent diabetes
___ decreases the number of receptors for insulin binding in sensitive tissues like fat or muscle
obesity
atherosclerosis, ulceration and gangrene; retinopathy
non insulin dependent diabetes
candidiasis, mucormycosis
non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus
bilateral parotid gland enlargement, xerostomia, accentuated response to plaque; slow wound healing; hyperplastic and erythematous gingiva; periodontal breakdown; very high levels of pro-inflammatory mediators
diabetes mellitus
this test is used to assess and monitor blood glucose levels over a 3 month period; patients need a goal of less than 6.5% to cut long term complications of diabets
hba1c
primary adrenal cortical insufficiency; to compensate, pituitary gland increases production of acth
addison disease
acth causes stimulation of melanocytes; bronzing of the skin may occur, as well as melanotic macules on oral mucosa
addison disease
a reduction in the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood; most often related to decrease in number of rbc’s
anemia
a deficency in a substance required for the normal development of rbc commonly from vitamins
anemia
suppression of bone marrow stem cells
anemia
pallor of skin and oral mucosa, angular cheilitis, erythema and atrophy of oral mucosa; loss of filiform(1st) and then fungiform papillae
anemia
an insuficient amount of iron is supplied to bone marrow for red blood cell development
iron deficiency anema
plummer vinson syndrome; dysphagia, atrophy of upper alimentary tract and predisposition of developing oral cancer; angular cheilitis, pallor, erythematous, smooth, painful tongue
iron defiency anemia
low hemoglobin content and reduced hematocrit; rbc appear smaller than normal(microcytic) and light in color(hypochromic)
diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia
autoimmune disease, caused by a defiency of intrinsic factor- secreted by parietal cells in stomach, necessary for absorption of vit b-12
pernicious anemia
megaloblastic rbc; abnormally large and immature megaloblasts with nuclei; schilling test detects an inability to absorb oral b12
pernicious anemia
dietary deficiencies; malnutrition; may be found with alcoholism or pregnancy; indistinguishable from pernious anemia
folic acid and vit b12 deficiency anemia
meditarranean or cooly anemia
thalassemia
group of inherited disorders of hemoglobin synthesis
thalassemia
yellow skin, pallor, fever, malaise, and weakness; prominant cheek bones, depression of bridge of nose, or prominent maxilla and protrusion or flaring of maxillary anterior teeth
thalassemia
salt and pepper patern
thalassemia
rbc develop sickle shape when there is decreased o2; person has weakness, shortness of breath, fatigue, joint pain, and nausea
sickle cell anemia
loss of trabeculation and large, irregular marrow spaces appear; hair on end pattern; trabeculae radiate outward
sickle cell anemia
sensitivity to wheat gluten; injury to intestinal mucosa; malabsorption of nutrients resulting in anemia
celiac sprue
diarrhea, nervousness, paresthesia; painful, burning tongue, atrophy of papillae, ulceration of oral mucosa
celiac sprue
