    Celiac.com 08/23/2013 - Previous studies have noted the presence of dental enamel defects in people with celiac disease.
    A team of researchers recently set out to study the prevalence of dental enamel defects in adults with celiac disease, and to determine if there is in fact a connection between the grade of teeth lesion and clinical parameters present at the time of diagnosis of celiac disease.
    The research team included L.Trotta, F. Biagi, P.I. Bianchi, A. Marchese, C. Vattiato, D. Balduzzi, V. Collesano, and G.R. Corazza.
    They are affiliated with the Coeliac Centre/First Department of Internal Medicine at the Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo at the University of Pavia in Italy.
    The team looked at 54 celiac disease patients who had undergone dental examination. The...

    Distinct Tooth Enamel Defects Can Help Reveal Celiac Disease
    Celiac.com 02/08/2017 - Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune-mediated enteropathy, triggered by exposure to dietary gluten in genetically prone individuals. Celiac disease is also one of many gastrointestinal diseases that can have dental manifestations. In fact, distinct dental enamel defects are strong indicators of celiac disease, and may lead to a role for dentists in better celiac screening.
    While the disease often manifests in early childhood, a large number of patients are diagnosed over the age of 50. Despite increased awareness, the majority of patients still remain undiagnosed. Dentists should consider celiac disease when they observe certain symmetric enamel defects.
    Symptoms of celiac disease vary widely and are certainly not restricted to the intestine. They may include...

    Does Timing of Gluten-Free Diet Influence Dental Enamel Defects in Celiac Disease?
    Celiac.com 08/09/2017 - There have been a number of studies showing a strong connection between celiac disease and dental enamel defects (DEDs), however, the exact relationship is still unclear.
    To get a better understanding, a team of researchers recently set out to evaluate DEDs in people with celiac disease by looking at how long it took them to begin a gluten-free diet (GFD).
    The research team included AM de Queiroz, J Arid, FK de Carvalho, RAB da Silva, EC Küchler, R Sawamura, LAB da Silva, and P Nelson-Filho.
    They are variously affiliated with the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, University of São Paulo - School of Dentistry of Ribeirão Preto, Ribeirão Preto, SP, Brazil, and the Department of Childcare and Pediatrics, University of São Paulo School of Medicine of Ribe...

    Easy to Spot Tooth Wear and Enamel Defects Point to Celiac Disease
    Celiac.com 07/05/2018 - We’ve known for a while that dental enamel defects can be an indicator of celiac disease. Now, a new study has evaluated the pathological conditions of the stomatognathic system observed in celiac patients on a gluten-free diet, and found that non-specific tooth wear can be seen nearly 20% of celiac patients, while such wear is seen in just under 6% of non-celiac control subjects. 
    The data come from a team of researchers that recently set out to evaluate the pathological conditions of the stomatognathic system observed in celiac patients on a gluten-free diet. The research team included Massimo Amato, Fabiana Zingone, Mario Caggiano Orcid, Paola Iovino, Cristina Bucci and Carolina Ciacci. They are variously affiliated with the Department of Medicine, Surg...

    Why You Should Ask Your Dentist About Gluten in Dental Products
    Celiac.com 02/23/2022 - Anyone who knows about trying to live gluten-free with celiac disease can likely cite chapter and verse about the wide variety of products that can contain hidden gluten. The list is long, and contains numerous non-food items, like makeup and cosmetics, shampoos and conditioners, lotions, drugs, and more.
    To that list, we can now add dental products, including both professional dental products and home dental products. Hidden gluten in dental products could be an issue for people with celiac disease, who need to remain gluten-free if they want to remain healthy. We know that dentists can play an important part in protecting people with celiac disease. But maybe there's even more your dentist can do to protect patients with celiac disease.
    Here's why ...

      Confused About Results

      @Ginger38, Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies, besides iron? Celiac disease causes inflammation which results in nutritional deficiencies. Iron needs Thiamine and the other B vitamins to make new red blood cells. Iodine and thiamine deficiencies affect the thyroid. The thyroid is one organ that uses lots of thiamine....

      Confused About Results

      Okay, Thank you!! I already have thyroid problems and my total iron binding capacity is high which usually means low iron but everything else was normal, lower end but “normal” my hair falls out and my nails won’t grow without breaking but nothing is being treated iron wise. I have started having palpitations and chest pain, both of which seem to be...

      Waiting on biopsy after positive bloodwork, but also not really believing this is real

      @knitty kitty I see, thank you!! Yes, basically the biopsy just said "normal villous architecture." It didn't give any kind of Marsh score at all, but it sounds like it would be a 0 based on the biopsy report, which is why he's saying it's Latent or Potential celiac. It's just weird because I know in Europe if I was a child, they wouldn't even do the biopsy...

      Diagnosis confusion

      That is one issue but the bigger issue may be the human tendency to rationalize it all away without an official diagnosis such that you keep falling off the gluten free bandwagon. But there is the option of going for the gluten challenge in a more robust way and getting retested.
