This document discusses eating disorders and plasma cell neoplasia. For eating disorders, it outlines the criteria for anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa including refusal to maintain a healthy weight, fear of gaining weight, binge eating and purging behaviors. Oral manifestations include enamel erosion, parotid enlargement and palatal ulcers. Management involves referral to other practitioners and supporting the patient physically and psychologically. For plasma cell neoplasia, it defines the condition as a malignant disorder of plasma cells causing bone lesions. Risk factors include genetics and radiation. Oral manifestations can include maxillary/mandibular lesions and dental amyloidosis. Dental management focuses on preventing infections and monitoring bisphosphonate treatment

EATING DISORDERS
A. CRITERIA FOR ANOREXIA NERVOSA
According to the latest Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) criteria: Refusal to maintain body at or above a minimally normal weight for age and height. Intense fear of gaining weight The central concern of weight and shape in the evaluation of the self, in addition to a reference to the denial of the serious consequence of weight loss. Amenorrhea. SUBTYPES: The restrictor type The binge purger type
B. CRITERIA FOR BULIMIA NERVOSA
Diagnostic criteria for Bulimia Nervosa: Recurrent episodes of binge eating . Recurrent inappropriate compensatory behavior to prevent weight gain. The binge eating and inappropriate compensatory behaviors both occur, on average, at least twice a week for 3 months. Self evaluation is unduly influenced by body shape and weight. The disturbance does not occur exclusively during episodes of anorexia nervosa. SUBTYPES: Purging Non purging
C. ORAL MANIFESTATIONS
Severe erosion of the enamel on the lingual
surfaces of the maxillary teeth - cardinal oral manifestation of eating disorders, due to acids from chronic vomiting. Parotid enlargement - as a result of starvation Mandibular teeth may be affected. Palatal ulcerations
D. Management
Refer to other practitioners.
Support of the patient physically, by treatment of tooth desensitization and esthetics. Support of the patient psychologically, by demonstrating a caring and compassionate attitude.
PLASMA CELL NEOPLASIA
I. DEFINITION
Is a group of related malignant disorders of terminally
differentiated B lymphocytes (plasma cells), of which plasma cell myeloma or multiple myeloma is the most common (90% of cases).
This condition is characterized by bone marrow multifocal
infiltration by malignant plasma cells. There are typically multiple destructive lesions or diffuse demineralization of bone. The tumour cells secrete a homogenous, complete or partial, immunoglobulin molecule, an M component or para protein, most commonly IgG or IgA. II. ETIOLOGY Genetic predisposition Ionizing radiation Chronic antigenic
III. ORAL MANIFESTATION
Maxillary or mandibular lesions Root resorption and loss of lamina dura may be found. Amyloid like deposition in the gingiva and tongue.
IV. DENTAL MANAGEMENT
Patients are prone to postoperative hemorrhage due to thrombocytopenia. Development of dental amyloidosis. Dental hygiene care should focus on controlling infections associated with a compromised immune system. Patients being treated with bisphophonates must be monitored closely for the development of osteonecrosis of the jaw. Educate patient about the necessity of reporting unusual sores or painful areas in the mouth.
