Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The role of this study is to highlight a correlation between patients with Marfan syndrome and oral health status by evaluating and reviewing the relevant scientific literature. The syndrome is characterized by an abnormal production of the fibrillin1 protein. The manifestations of Marfan syndrome affect organs that contain connective tissue such as the skeletal system, the eyes, the heart and the blood vessels, the lungs and the fibrous membranes that cover the brain and the spine. The facial bony and soft structures can therefore be affected, influencing the stage of tooth formation and the structure of the teeth, we also want to analyze in this study, the periodontal complications and the management of the latter, with the use of surgical techniques that include the use of biomaterials. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. After a careful analysis of the work obtained by two independent academics, there have been 18. All data from the studies were compared and many of these highlighted the presence of abnormalities in the oral district. RESULTS: The studies taken into consideration a whole series of oral manifestations related to the Marfan syndrome. Oral mucosa, periodontal, dental abnormalities, bone abnormalities or joint dysfunction are frequently involved in patients affected by this disease. CONCLUSIONS: All the research have given positive results in terms of dental or oral anomalies. This information may be essential to limit and intervene early improving the oral health of syndromic patients.
