Treatment
The treatment of pediatric patients with MS follows the
following tenets
21-24
:
Institute a disease-modifying treatment (DMT) as soon as
the diagnosis of pediatric MS is confirmed. This is a
highly relapsing form of disease, and early effective
treatment may prevent relapses and relapse-associated
disability (Table 20.4). Consideration of a highly
effective DMT balancing safety and tolerability is
important in this population.
Monitor DMT response clinically and with annual MRI
scans.
25
Appropriate bloodwork, screening, and
monitoring tests may be required for each DMT.
Monitor adherence to therapy continually. Adherence
may be challenging in the setting of miseducation about
the expectations for DMTs, unaddressed side effects,
busy family schedules, and travel/college. 26 In the case of
nonadherence, schedule a visit to discuss and address
contributing issues and consider switching if not
addressable.
Switch treatment if there is evidence of intractable
nonadherence, intolerance, or treatment failure.
27
Treatment failure may be defined 1 to 2 new lesions or
attacks occurring within a 12-month period. One must
account for an approximately 3-month period for a new
DMT to take effect, and consider a rebaselined MRI at
that time. The tolerance for new lesions or attacks versus
switching is a discussion between the neurologist and
family, with an informed discussion about the risks or
benefits of either approach.
Consider symptomatic treatments as needed. These may
include antidepressants, fatigue medications, and bladder
management.
Consider contraceptives in sexually active teenagers. This
may be a challenging conversation, but important,
https://t.me/medicina_free

because many DMTs may have adverse effects on a
pregnancy and some are teratogens.

Transitional Care and College Planning
Most children with MS will receive a diagnosis during their
teenage years and thus may be eligible to transition to adult
care within a few years after diagnosis. Our practice is to
continue to follow these patients in the pediatric setting up to
age 20 to 23 years to provide educational and psychosocial
support during this critical period. Transitions to an adult
neurologist should include continuation or transition of key
support services including school support, psychosocial care,
and subspecialty care (urology, physical therapy). Often,
meeting with the adult neurologist before transition helps to
https://t.me/medicina_free

ease the anxiety of a new clinical setting. Young adults are
encouraged to start to participate in their own care early onset
and includes making appointments, monitoring medication
adherence, and filling prescriptions.
Transition to college requires preparation and consideration of
the specific needs of a young adult with MS. Discussion with
the patient and family should include consideration of college
location, proximity to medical/neurological care, dormitory
conditions including privacy, temperature control, and the
ability to administer medications. Most colleges have an
American for Disabilities Act (ADA) office on campus, and
patients with MS should be encouraged to establish a
relationship with the ADA office, which can provide academic
and legal support.
Resources for Families
There are a number of organizations that offer resources to
assist and support children and families affected by pediatric
MS. These include the International Pediatric MS Study Group
(www.ipmssg.org), the National MS Society (www.nmss.org),
and other national organizations.

Dental and Oral Health
Considerations in Multiple
Sclerosis
Danielle E. Currier Gwendolyn S. Reeve Marsha E. Rubin
Introduction
Dental clinicians are essential members of every patient’s
health care team. They play an integral role in prevention,
diagnosis, and treatment to ensure that oral health impacts the
overall health of patients positively. Long-term challenges of
multiple sclerosis (MS) have implications in the motor,
sensory, and cognitive functions of these patients. The ability
to maintain proper hygiene, control medication-induced
changes in the oral environment, prevent infection, and
preserve function can greatly affect the well-being of the
patient beyond the context of their oral health.
An understanding of common symptoms associated with MS
is essential. Temporomandibular disorders, parafunctional
habits, facial palsies, and dysphagia are commonly seen
among these patients. To a lesser but still significant extent,
paroxysmal pain syndromes such as trigeminal neuralgia (TN)
can affect individuals with MS.
1-3
These symptoms should be
distinguished from symptoms of a dental origin, and in some
instances, they can be the first sign of MS in the undiagnosed
patient. When a dental source cannot be identified, the patient
should be referred to a specialist for medical workup. The oral
health care provider should help reduce pain, diagnose
infections early on, and educate the patient on individualized
long-term dental care.
https://t.me/medicina_free

This chapter will discuss ways the oral health care provider
should be involved with the treatment and management of
patients with MS from the start of their care. It will review
common oral symptoms related to the disease and medications
to treat the disease, provide an overview of TN, review
anesthetic considerations, discuss treatment considerations in
patients on immunosuppressants/immunomodulators,
corticosteroids, and bisphosphonates, and provide suggestions
for treatment of patients in the more advanced stages of MS.
Oral Disease Prevention and Care of the
MS Patient
Dental clinicians should be in communication with the
patient’s other health care providers from the beginning of the
patient’s care. A thorough medical history should be obtained
from the patient or health care agent and confirmed with the
MS specialist. It should include the clinically active or
nonactive state and type of MS, a review of systems, a list of
medications the patient is currently on as well as an
understanding of the side effects, a record of past
bisphosphonate use, and recent blood workups (which will be
elaborated on in future sections).
Next, an oral hygiene and caries risk assessment should be
performed. A thorough discussion on prevention, dietary
counseling, and a review of patient goals and expectations
should be had with the patient and family members. Some
studies suggest that patients living with MS have a higher
incidence of tooth loss, silent infection, and caries.
2,4,5
Most
dental disease is preventable, and therefore, this does not need
to be the case. The biggest risk factors for dental disease are
challenges in motor coordination for proper oral hygiene and
difficulties with access to care. In one study, 48.5% of
individuals with MS reported their health as poor, and of
those, only 56% reported having seen their dentist in the last
6 months; of these, some reported difficulty in accessing the
building (21%) and the waiting room (11%), while only a few
(38%) reported suitable parking and less than half (48%)
suitable toilet facilities. 6 The optimal time to treat patients is
https://t.me/medicina_free

when the disease is clinically inactive, when symptoms are
minimal. Even as the disease progresses, there are no
contraindications to treatment; however, modification to
treatment modalities should be considered. Dental
management should be adjusted over time to each person’s
needs (see Tables 21.1 and 21.2). Suggestions for treatment of
the patient with more advanced MS will be reviewed in the
last section of this chapter.

Table 21.2
Considerations in Treatment and Improving Access to Care of Patients
With Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Provide wheelchair accessibility and staff assistance from the entrance to the
operatories
Provide bathroom breaks before and during procedures for those with urinary
incontinence
Provide sources of transportation assistance
Schedule morning visits as fatigue tends to be more pronounced in the afternoon
Consider shorter appointments for more symptomatic patients and more frequent
recalls
Consider different levels of sedation for treatment depending on anxiety,
neurological symptoms, or severity of the disease
Careful use of isolation methods and adequate evacuation as respiratory muscle
and gag reflex impairment become more pronounced. Use a rubber dam for
proper isolation if patient can adequately breathe through the nose. Use a bite
block. Treat these patients in a semisitting position
Understand existing trigeminal neuralgia or facial anesthesia and avoid
triggering episode
Consider dental implants for fixed prosthesis or to improve function of
removable prosthesis
Use of resin-modified glass ionomers (RMGI) restorations and cements for
biocompatibility and fluoride-releasing properties
Infections in MS Exacerbation of
Symptoms
There is sufficient evidence that infection can add to the
underlying abnormal immunological response of these
patients, which can increase the risk of exacerbation of
symptoms.
9,10
No studies have been conducted on the
association between dental infections and relapse specifically;
however, the activation of the innate immune system by
https://t.me/medicina_free

microbial products in MS patients has been proposed to be
linked to the induction of MS relapse. 11 Systemic infection
increases T-cell proliferation and proflammatory interleukins,
leading to higher levels of inflammatory response.
11,12
A
number of bacterial and viral strains have been suggested to
have a correlation on worsening some MS activity.
Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin A, for example, has been
suggested to be one risk factor for exacerbations through
activation of disease modulating T-cells. 13 Evidence has also
demonstrated that upper respiratory infections have been
linked to subsequent relapses.
12,14
Relapses are a distinctive characteristic of MS, and although
they are usually followed by a period of clinical inactivity,
residual side effects cause persistent functional impairment,
impacting the quality of life of these individuals. Management
and reduction of potential causes associated with MS relapses
is important, as it may help to shorten and lessen the disability.
Furthermore, patients on steroids or disease-modifying drugs
may have a decreased ability to fight opportunistic infections
or dental infections. Oral-facial infections should be identified
and prevented early on. Patients with maxillary tooth and sinus
pain or ear pain of nondental origin should be referred for
evaluation if an upper respiratory infection is suspected.
Antibiotics, antivirals, and/or antifungals should be judiciously
prescribed as needed, and necessary treatment should be
carried out early on. Patients with any suspicion of infection
should be followed up with.
Multiple Sclerosis Treatment Medications
and Oral Health
Although there is no cure for MS, the focus of treatment is to
reduce the number of relapses and slow the disease process.
The most common medications are steroids for treatment of
acute attacks, disease-modifying therapies to suppress the
activity of the disease, and symptomatic therapy for MS side
effects, such as muscle relaxants, antidepressants, and
anticholinergics. It is important to be aware of drug
interactions when using medications in dentistry, and
