Abstract

Introduction: The systemic erythematous lupus is an autoinmune, inflammatory and systemic disease, of unknown cause which can affect the stomatognatic aparatus.

Objective: To describe the oral maxilofacial manifestations in patients with systemic erithematous lupus.

Methods: An observational, series of cases descriptive study of 25 patients with diagnosis of the disease, admitted in the Rheumatology Service of "Saturnino Lora Torres" Teaching Provincial Clinical-Surgical Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out during 2017.

Results: Among the intraoral lesions there were the periodontopathies as the most frequent, with 68.0 %, and of the extraoral lesions, the eritema, with 40.0 %. Likewise, 10 patients presented changes in the temporomandibular joint, what represented a 40.0 %.

Conclusions: A great damage could be identified in the oral complex because of the systemic erythematous lupus. In this respect, stomatologists plays an important role in the detection of its clinical manifestations.
