Sjogren´s syndrome and oral health: : A literature study. (English)
Abstract [sv]

Sammanfattning

Bakgrund: Sjögren syndrom (SS) är en globalt utbredd sjukdom som berör 0,5–1% av befolkningen, främst kvinnor i medelåldern. 

Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt var att beskriva vilka extra- och intraorala kliniska tecken som upptäcks hos patienter med SS  

Metod: En allmän litteraturöversikt genomfördes. Artiklar publicerade mellan 2012–2022, med tydligt urskiljbar information om SS överensstämmande med syftet användes. 

Resultat: Studier visar att patienter med SS har högre grad av oral involvering inklusive oral lichen planus, candida infektioner och angulär cheilit. Salivproduktionen kan vara nedsatt vilket orsakar hyposalivation och ger ökad risk för karies. Svullnad av spottkörtlar, nedsatt funktion i käkleder och tandslitage förekommer också. 

 Slutsats: Av de intraorala tecken var hyposalivation, oral candidos och angulär cheilit bland annat vanligt förekommande och extraoralt var svullnad av parotiskörtlarna vanligast. Svullna parotiskörtlar var även det vanligaste kliniska tecknet för barn med SS. Det förekom en stor variation i kliniska tecken och det är därför viktigt att fortsätta utforska sambandet mellan SS och oral påverkan för att förbättra diagnos och behandling av sjukdomen då den är svårdiagnostiserad.

Summary

Title: Sjogren´s syndrome and oral health: A literature study. 

Background: Sjogren´s syndrome (SS) is a globally prevalent disease affecting 0,5–1% of the population, predominantly middle-aged women. 

Aim: The aim of this literature review was to describe the extra- and intraoral clinical signs detected in patients with Sjogren's syndrome.  

Method: A general literature study was conducted. Articles published between 2012 and 2022 with clearly discernible information about SS consistent with the objective were included.

Results: Studies show that patients with SS can have oral involvement, including oral lichen planus, candida infections and angular cheilitis. Saliva production can be reduced, which causes hyposalivation and increases the risk of dental caries. Swelling of salivary glands, reduced function of the jaw and tooth wear may also occur.  

Conclusion: Among the intraoral signs, hyposalivation, oral candidosis and angular cheilitis were mostly common, and for the extraoral signs swelling of the parotid glands was the most common. There was a large variation in clinical signs and it´s important to continue to explore the relationship between SS and oral involvement to improve the diagnosis and treatment for SS of the disease as it is difficult to diagnose.
