Description
On this week’s episode of Fast Facts - Perio Edition, Katrina Sanders, we are continuing the conversation that we started last week in discussing periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease discussing patients that present with Trisomy 21 also known as Downs Syndrome. Quotes: “In fact, in about 30% to 50% of Down Syndrome cases, these patients may experience cardiovascular disease to the point where they might actually be placed on a premedication prior to your dental visit. “So we believe that patients who present with Trisomy 21 present with a significant decrease in neutrophil activity due to that declined chemotaxis.” Resources: DentistRX: https://www.dentistrx.com More Fast Facts: https://www.ataleoftwohygienists.com/fast-facts/ Katrina Sanders Website: https://www.katrinasanders.com Katrina Sanders Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedentalwinegenist/ Sources: Papapanou, P.
