description Examination of the oral cavity can reveal signs and symptoms of immunologic diseases, endocrinopathies, hematologic conditions, systemic infections, and nutritional disorders. Iron deficiency anemia is present particularly in developing countries and characteristic oral manifestations include mucosal pallor, atrophic glossitis, and candidiasis. Vitamin D deficiency rickets occur in children between 3 months and 2 years old, as well as in teenagers during growth spurts which require high levels of calcium and phosphorus. The occurrence of cavities is also enabled by enamel dysplasia caused by malnutrition in the first years of life, this being a location of choice for the occurrence of cavities. Oral manifestations of malnutrition include aphthous stomatitis and atrophic glossitis caused by anemia and avitaminoses. The oral cavity plays an important part in many physiological processes represented by digestion, respiration and phonation. Oral signs frequently precede general symptoms. Physicians should be familiar with the relationship between systemic and oral health.
