Clinical Implications

68
Nutrition deficiencies –and
dentofacial growth
Nutrition and Skeletal Maturation
 Studies have shown
 “prolonged nutritive failure in growing
child result in retardation of bone
growth centers in the hand and wrist
radiographs”.

69
dentofacial growth
 Malformations and prenatal
deficiencies-
Dietary intake of the expectant mother is
directly related to the condition of the
infant at birth.
 Warkany –showed riboflavin-cleft
palate, shortening of mandible

70
dentofacial growth
 Evans ,nelson-showed acute folic acid
deficiency-cleft palate.
Nutrition and teeth-
 Local effect
 Systemic effect

71
dentofacial growth
 Role of fluorides-
 Anticariogenic factor.
 Long continued exposure to excessive
amounts may result –dental fluorosis
-skeletal fluorosis

72
dentofacial growth
 Increased density of various bones .
 Increased calcification of ligaments,
tendons and vague pain in small joints
of the hands and feet
 In the most severest form –stiffening of
the spine virtually making the patient
immobile.

73
dentofacial growth
 Nutrition and malocclusion-
 results from various nutrient
deficiencies-abnormal bone growth
-loss of teeth.
-severe caries.
-periodontal breakdown.

74
dentofacial growth
 Vitamins in relation to growth and
dentition-
 VitA-disturbances in differentiation and
positional growth of the developing
teeth.
-defective calcification.
-Retardation of eruption.
-disturbances of periodontal tissues.

75
dentofacial growth
 Vit B-
-loss of apatite
-disturbed digestion.
-Retardation of growth
 Vit C
-disturbed calcification of teeth.
-retarded eruption.
-thickened jawbones.
-narrow maxilla.
-short mandible.
-High vault palate.

76
Role of nutrition on the periodontium-
response to tooth movement
 Physical nature of the food-
-soft food vs. fibrous food.
 Vitamin deficiency
- Vit C
 Increased blood sugar levels.

77
Role of Nutrition in Root Resorption
 Common iatrogenic problem associated
with orthodontic treatment
 Marshall et.al-greater degree of
resorption in deficient diets.
 Beck –calcium deficiency were more
susceptible.

78
Effects of consistency of food
 Throughout its various stages of growth
mouth is affected by complex system of
forces .
 Diet that does not supply food of a sufficient
hard consistency does not supply adequate
stimulus for proper mastication resulting in a
narrow maxillary arch .
 Similar observations have been made in
humans –arch collapse syndrome.

79
1. Low level of eruption –posteriors
2. Maxillary arch are narrower.
3. Mandible are shorter and condyles are
thinner.
4. Less tonicity of temporalis and
masseter.
5. Reduced linear dimension of skull.

80
 In humans-
 Some authors have proposed-
weakening of the
temporomandibular articulation
 Resulting in malocclusion.
