PRESENCE OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI IN PATIENTS WITH ORAL MALODOR
Journal Title: Journal of IMAB - Annual Proceeding (Scientific Papers) - Year 2013, Vol 19, Issue 4
Abstract
Oral halitosis is an unpleasant multifactor oral pathology of health and social implications. Ninety per cent of the patients suffering from halitosis have oral abnormalities. The remaining 10 percent of halitosis sufferers have systemic disorders. The exact mechanism of halitosis occurrence is not clear, and in many patients the etiology is an enigma. In 40% in a group of 40 halitosis patients we found various microbes in the oral cavity, mostly candida, and in 35% we found IgG antibodies to Helicobacter pylori. In the - 56 control patients with gastric symptomes the rate of H. Pylori infection was 27%. We suggest oral microbiological examination to be performed simultaneously with a H. pylori test - if the dentist does not establish an oral cause for halitosis.
