Expert consensus on endodontic therapy for patients with systemic conditions. Int J Oral Sci 2024; 16:45. [PMID: 38886374 PMCID: PMC11183232 DOI: 10.1038/s41368-024-00312-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 04/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
The overall health condition of patients significantly affects the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of endodontic diseases. A systemic consideration of the patient's overall health along with oral conditions holds the utmost importance in determining the necessity and feasibility of endodontic therapy, as well as selecting appropriate therapeutic approaches. This expert consensus is a collaborative effort by specialists from endodontics and clinical physicians across the nation based on the current clinical evidence, aiming to provide general guidance on clinical procedures, improve patient safety and enhance clinical outcomes of endodontic therapy in patients with compromised overall health.

Abstract
The recent changes in terms of both epidemiology of chronic liver disease (CLD) and long-term survival of patients with CLD have had a great impact in the field of dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgery. In this context, compared with the previous decades, today it is more probable to cure patients with CLD also at advanced stage (cirrhosis), that could remain asymptomatic for long, before the appearance of signs of decompensation. Hence, it is crucial to identify the patient with CLD and to define the stage of the latter. The main risks are the viral acquisition on the part of the operator or of the other patients, the risk of bleeding due to the impaired coagulation status or the risk of liver decompensation due to alterations in the metabolism of certain drugs leading to hepatotoxicity. Generally, it is appropriate to treat patients with CLD not yet evolved in cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis, in a primary care setting, whilst secondary care management should be reserved to those patients with decompensated cirrhosis (Child-Turcotte-Pugh's grade B or C) or compensated cirrhosis but with signs of thrombocytopenia or previous episodes of decompensation. In the latter case it is mandatory to quantify the perioperative risk. In this updated review the authors describe the practical approach to the patient with CLD.

Oral mucosa lesions and gingival bleeding can indicate the progression of liver disease in children and adolescents aged two to 18 years. Acta Paediatr 2018; 107:886-892.

Abstract
AIM This study assessed correlations between systemic disturbances of paediatric chronic liver diseases (CLD) and oral symptoms in subjects aged 2-18 years. METHODS It was carried out during outpatient appointments at the Children's Memorial Health Institute, Warsaw, Poland, from 2010 to 2015 and comprised 52 CLD patients with a mean age of 12.3 ± 4.6. We also recruited 54 generally healthy controls with a mean age of 12.0 ± 3.7 from the Department of Paediatric Dentistry at the Medical University of Warsaw. The study used various measures, including the Child-Pugh score, which assesses CLD prognosis. We also assessed the causes of liver disease and the medication taken by the patients with CLD. RESULTS A total of 24 patients received a Child-Pugh score of seven or more points, while 28 patients were awarded five or six points. More severe cases of gingivitis and a greater prevalence of oral lesions were evident in patients suffering from liver disease. Oral candidiasis, telangiectasia, bald tongue, cracked strawberry lip, yellowish-brown gum discoloration, petechiae and gingival bleeding all correlated with the severity of liver dysfunction, coagulopathy, protein, bilirubin and creatinine levels and portal hypertension. CONCLUSION This study found that oral lesions and gingival bleeding may indicate the progression of liver failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was designed to investigate the maintenance of teeth and implants in patients with viral liver disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS 316 patients without any significant systemic disease were selected as a control group. Liver disease group was consisted of 230 patients. Necessary data were collected using clinical records and panoramic radiographs. Then, the patients were subdivided into 2 groups based on the type of active dental therapy received before maintenance period (Pre-Tx). Analysis for finding statistically significant difference was performed based on the need for re-treatment of active dental therapy (Re-Tx) and change in the number of teeth (N-teeth) and implants (N-implants). RESULTS Comparing to control group, the patients with liver disease showed higher value on N-teeth, N-implants, and Re-Tx. Statistically significant differences were found on N-teeth (P=.000) and Re-Tx (P=.000) in patients with non-surgical Pre-Tx. Analysis based on severity of liver disease showed that N-teeth and Re-Tx were directly related to severity of liver disease regardless of received type of Pre-Tx. Significant differences were found on N-teeth (P=.003) and Re-Tx (P=.044) in patients with non-surgical Pre-Tx. CONCLUSION In this study, it was concluded that liver disease might influence the loss of teeth and cause the relapse of dental disease during maintenance period in patients. A significant positive relationship between tooth and implant loss and severity of liver disease seems to exist.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an oral disease that is highly prevalent worldwide, with a prevalence of 30–50% of the population in developed countries, but only ~10% present with severe forms. It is also estimated that periodontitis results in worldwide productivity losses amounting to ~54 billion USD yearly. In addition to the damage it causes to oral health, periodontitis also affects other types of disease. Numerous studies have confirmed the association between periodontitis and systemic diseases, such as diabetes, respiratory disease, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. Increasing evidence also indicated that periodontitis may participate in the progression of liver diseases, such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, as well as affecting liver transplantation. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are currently no reviews elaborating upon the possible links between periodontitis and liver diseases. Therefore, the current review summarizes the human trials and animal experiments that have been conducted to investigate the correlation between periodontitis and liver diseases. Furthermore, in the present review, certain mechanisms that have been postulated to be responsible for the role of periodontitis in liver diseases (such as bacteria, pro-inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress) are considered. The aim of the review is to introduce the hypothesis that periodontitis may be important in the progression of liver disease, thus providing dentists and physicians with an improved understanding of this issue.

Abstract
Elimination of dental infection foci has been recommended before liver transplantation (LT) because lifelong immunosuppression may predispose to infection spread. Association between pre-LT oral health and the aetiology and severity of chronic liver disease (CLD) was investigated retrospectively. A total of 212 adult patients (median age 51.1) who had received LT during 2000-2006 in Finland were included. Their oral health had been pre-operatively examined. Patients were divided into seven different CLD groups. Common indications for LT were primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC 25.5%), alcohol cirrhosis (ALCI 17.5%) and primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC 14.6%). Patients were also categorized by the Model for End stage Liver Disease (MELD) scoring system. Medical, dental and panoramic jaw x-ray data were analysed between groups. PBC patients had the lowest number of teeth with significant difference to PSC patients (19.7 vs. 25.6, P < 0.005, anova, t-test). ALCI patients had the highest number of tooth extractions with significant difference in comparison to PSC patients (5.6 vs. 2.5, P < 0.005). Lower MELD score resulted in fewer tooth extractions but after adjusting for several confounding factors, age was the most important factor associated with extractions (P < 0.005). The aetiology of CLD associated with the oral health status and there was a tendency towards worse dental health with higher MELD scores.
