Abstract(s)
O médico dentista é responsável pelo diagnóstico das mais variadas condições da cavidade oral e o bom conhecimento das patologias e seus sinais e sintomas permite uma identificação precoce. Assim, doenças sistémicas como as hepatites crónicas manifestam características marcantes que podem ser percebidas pelo profissional bem instruído.
Algumas manifestações orais das hepatites crónicas são vistas rotineiramente pelo médico dentista, como é o caso das cáries dentárias e doença periodontal, entretanto, condições menos frequentes como hemorragias, petéquias, mucosa amarela e até mesmo estrias esbranquiçadas características do líquen plano oral podem ser manifestadas concomitantemente ao desenvolvimento da patologia.
Compreender a associação dos sinais e sintomas da cavidade oral com o envolvimento hepático requer um preparo prévio do médico dentista e sua equipa que deve, além de estar preparada, atentar-se aos cuidados com o paciente e todos os demais presentes no gabinete médico-dentário. Portanto, este trabalho visa contribuir com a comunidade médico-dentária de modo a auxiliar na descrição das principais alterações orais em pacientes comprometidos pelas hepatites crónicas.

Thus, systemic diseases such as chronic hepatitis manifest marked characteristics that can be perceived by a well-educated professional. Some oral manifestations of chronic hepatitis are routinely seen by the dentist, such as dental caries and periodontal disease, however, less frequent conditions such as hemorrhages, petechiae, yellow mucosa and even whitish streaks characteristic of oral lichen planus can be manifested concomitantly to the development of pathology. Understanding the association of the signs and symptoms of the oral cavity with hepatic involvement requires prior preparation by the dentist and his team that must, in addition to being prepared, pay attention to the care of the patient and everyone else present in the dental-medical office. Therefore, this work aims to contribute to the community of dentists in order to assist in the description of the main oral changes in patients affected by chronic hepatitis.
