Abstrakt: Objectives: The objective of this systematic literature review was to provide a complete panorama of the oral manifestations of Huntington's disease (HD).
Materials and Methods: Databases were searched, and original research studies or case report manuscripts up to May 2021 were included using keywords that describe HD combined with words related to oral health; MeSH terms were used exclusively. No time or language restrictions were applied.
Results: Twenty-two investigations (12 original articles and 10 case reports) regarding oral manifestations of HD were included. The subjects examined in the selected research articles were dental health, coordination of oral structures, speech, dysphagia, and swallowing alterations. The case reports described dental treatment procedures, oromandibular dyskinesia, dysphagia, and speech alterations.
Conclusions: The oral manifestations of HD were found to be associated with the advance of the disease in that the more severe the HD, the worse the alterations affecting the oral cavity. Dysphagia, dysarthria, masticatory problems, oral health impairment, and choreiform movements involving the tongue and other orofacial muscles were the main manifestations of HD in the oral cavity. The PROSPERO systematic review registration number of this study is CRD42021238934.
