Oral mucosal lesions and temporomandibular joint impairment of elderly people in the South East Local Government Area of Ibadan
Gerodontology, 04/02/09
Taiwo JO et al. - Oral pathoses prevalence (22.46%) was similar to findings in developed countries (29.9%) but with a reversal of causal factors, infection-related swellings were more common, whereas pre-malignant lesions were less common. The infections were mostly complications from periodontal disease, which culminated in abscess formation. Tobacco-related habits were not highly prevalent among the elderly people in SELGA. However, oral pathoses resulting from nutritional deficiencies were the third most frequent lesions observed.
