We aim to create an information platform by contributing orodental findings of Pompe disease to literature. An 18-month-old male patient with Pompe disease was referred to our clinic due to swelling of the gums. In first dental examination, a nonfluctuant, normal gingiva colored swelling at the right anterior region of maxilla was detected. His parents were recommended to perform finger massage to the region. Six months later, 51, 52, 62, and 74 numbered teeth had erupted, there was a fusion between 51 and 52 numbered teeth, 84 numbered tooth was seen to be erupted, and a swelling at the site of this tooth, similar to previous one, was present. Finger massage was recommended for this area as well, and the swelling was found to have decreased at the follow-up, one week later. Tooth eruption problems and developmental dental abnormalities should be included in the signs for Pompe disease.
我们旨在通过将庞贝病的口腔牙齿研究结果贡献于文献来创建一个信息平台。一名18个月大的庞贝病男性患者因牙龈肿胀被转诊至我们的诊所。在首次牙科检查中，在上颌右前部发现一个无波动、牙龈颜色正常的肿胀。建议其父母对该区域进行手指按摩。6个月后，51、52、62和74号牙萌出，51号牙和52号牙融合，84号牙萌出，且该牙部位出现一个与之前相似的肿胀。该区域也建议进行手指按摩，一周后的随访发现肿胀有所减轻。牙齿萌出问题和牙齿发育异常应纳入庞贝病的体征之中。
