Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are the most common forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), both of
unknown aetiology. These conditions are characterised by the chronic and recurrent inflammation of different parts
of the gastrointestinal tract, but while in CD, chronic inflammation may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract,
in UC, mucosal inflammatory changes are confined to the colon. IBD is currently on the increase, and it is important
for the dental professional to be familiar with the condition as patients with IBD may present oral manifestations of
the underlying disease. Such manifestations of IBD may precede the onset of intestinal radiographic lesions by as
much as a year, or even more. Treatments used to manage IBD can affect the delivery of routine dental care. |
