Abstract(s)
O abuso de substâncias psicoativas, mais do que um problema social, é uma questão de saúde pública. As drogas provocam sérios danos à saúde, podendo levar até a morte em casos de sobredosagem. Na cavidade oral, os efeitos nocivos manifestam-se principalmente através de cáries rampantes, xerostomia, doença periodontal, bruxismo e disfunção da articulação temporomandibular, geralmente associados a uma higiene oral precária e desnutrição grave. O objetivo deste trabalho, realizado através de uma revisão de literatura, foi descrever os efeitos sistémicos e orais do abuso de cannabis, heroína, metanfetaminas, ecstasy e cocaína; bem como as precauções a serem tomadas durante o atendimento odontológico para a redução de riscos. O conhecimento das manifestações orais associadas às drogas é uma condição necessária para assegurar um tratamento seguro e eficaz.
Psychoactive substance abuse, rather than a social problem, is a matter of public health. The drugs cause serious damage to health and can even lead to death in cases of overdose. In the oral cavity, the harmful effects manifest mainly through rampant caries, dry mouth, periodontal disease, bruxism and temporomandibular joint dysfunction, usually associated with poor oral hygiene and severe malnutrition. The aim of this paper, conducted through a literature review, was to describe the systemic and oral effects of cannabis, heroin, ecstasy and cocaine abuse; as well as the precautions to be taken during dental care for risk reduction. The knowledge of oral manifestations associated with drugs is a necessary condition to have a safe and effective treatment.
