About this trial
Patients with Wilson disease have poorer dental and periodontal health and a have lower oral quality of life than control patients. Patients with a neurological form would also more frequently present limitations in the function of the masticatory apparatus. Systemic treatments for Wilson disease are associated with lesions of the oral mucosa. Analysis of copper level in saliva could testify to the effectiveness of copper depletion in treated patients The main objective is to compare the state of dental health between: patients with Wilson disease in the hepatic form and patients with the neurological form, and a population of controls.
