Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia with gingival lesion. Review and case reports.

A case of hereditary, hemorrhagic telangiectasia is described which has been under observation for more than 8 years. The clinical findings are discussed; light microscopic and electron microscopic findings as well as current research for a causative mechanism and recommended therapy are reviewed. The patient exhibited gingival telangiectatic participation. Another, even more severe case of this disease showed repeated, severe hemorrhage from mucosal lesions in the region of the incisive papilla, severe internal bleeding from the nasal mucosa and the gut and several punctate gingival telangiectases. The occurance of gingival lesions may not be as rare as thought. Such lesions may simply be rather inconspicuous.

Periodontosis: a problem in orthodontics.

1. Periodontosis occurs in the same age group in which orthodontic therapy is most often done. It is a periodontal disease which in the early stages may show little or no gingival inflammation and is easily overlooked unless one is aware of the existence of this condition and looks for it. 2. Since malocclusions are common in adolescents, it is reasonable to expect that some adolescents with malocclusions will also develop periodontosis. 3. Periodontosis may have its onset during active orthodontic treatment. 4. Orthodontists, should routinely examine all of their patients, using adequate roentgenograms and a periodontal probe before initiating therapy and at periodic (yearly) intervals during active treatment. 5. Where malocclusions are present in patients who already have periodontosis, orthodontic treatment may be a necessary and beneficial part of the total treatment plan.
