14 SURVEY OF AMERICAN DENTAL SCHOOLS ON THEIR CURRICULUM FOR TREATING PATIENTS WITH RHEUMATIC DISEASES, SPECIFICALLY SCLERODERMA Caitlin Nash, RD, LDN, MPH candidate Public Health and Professional Degrees Program Tufts University School of Medicine David M Leader, DMD, MPH Department of Diagnosis and Health Promotion Tufts University School of Medicine
15 Teaser Nearly every school teaches predoctoral students about the treatment of patients with rheumatic diseases. (most of those include scleroderma) About half of the schools offer continuing education about the treatment of patients with rheumatic diseases.
16 Scleroderma and oral health Xerostomia (dry mouth, Sjögren's syndrome). Pain and difficulty opening. Oral effects of medications. Psychological effects (depression, self image). Gastro-Esophageal Reflux (GERD) Scleroderma & Dental Health 16
17 Scleroderma Increases Risk of Decay Diet Xerostomia Oral Hygiene GERD Host Resistance Professional care Self Cleaning Depression Scleroderma & Dental Health 17
18 CAMBRA Caries Management By Risk Assessment Risk factors that apply to many scleroderma patients: Special health care needs 3 or more carious lesions (cavities) in last 3 years Teeth missing due to caries last 3 years Severe dry mouth Medications that reduce salivary flow Visible plaque Exposed root surfaces Lack of a dental home
19 Oral effects of Medications Xerostomia. Oral Lesions. Stomatitis. Candidiasis. Intraoral hemorrhage Dysgeusia taste change. Gingival hyperplasia swollen gums. Osteonecrosis (Bone death) of the Jaw. Scleroderma & Dental Health 19
20 Treatment of Xerostomia Symptomatic. Caphosol. Calcium/phosphate paste Artificial saliva. Salivart Sugar free candies. Fluoride gel and rinse Medical Pilocarpine (Salagen) Cevimeline (Evoxac) Scleroderma & Dental Health 20
21 Caphosol 1 box contains 30 doses. 1 dose = 2 ampules mixed together. Available by Rx at pharmacies and at (free delivery).
22 Home Care Products MI Paste Fluoride Products Scleroderma & Dental Health 22
23 Why Can Muscarinic Agonists Be Used to Stimulate Saliva? o The severity of salivary dysfunction is disproportionate to the amount of lymphocyte infiltration o Most Sjögren s syndrome patients have remaining acinar cells in their salivary glands o Muscarinic receptors on these cells are still capable of responding to stimulation o In sufficient dosages, muscarinic agonists can increase secretion of exocrine glands
24 EVOXAC : Safety Considerations Contraindications: o uncontrolled asthma o hypersensitivity to the drug o acute iritis o narrow-angle (angle-closure) glaucoma
25 EVOXAC : Safety Considerations Cevimeline can potentially alter cardiac conduction, heart rate, and produce transient changes in hemodynamics. Close medical supervision: o history of cardiac disease o controlled asthma o chronic bronchitis o chronic obstructive pulmonary disease o beta adrenergic antagonists because of the possibility of conduction disturbances o history of nephrolithiasis or cholelithiasis
26 EVOXAC : Safety Considerations Special Populations Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established Special care should be exercised when cevimeline is taken by geriatric patients, considering the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function
27 EVOXAC : Safety Considerations Information for Patients If a patient sweats excessively while taking cevimeline, dehydration may develop Caution should be advised while driving at night or performing hazardous activities in reduced lighting
