The aim of our research was to evaluate the pathological conditions of the stomatognathic system observed in celiac patients on a gluten-free diet. (2) Methods: we consecutively recruited celiac patients on a gluten-free diet at our celiac center, as well as healthy volunteers. Two dentists examined all patients\/controls and checked them for any mouth disorder. (3) Results: Forty-nine patients affected by celiac disease (age at test 31.8 \u00b1 11.58, time on GFD 8.73 \u00b1 7.7) and 51 healthy volunteers (age at test 30.5 \u00b1 8.7) were included. Recurrent aphthous stomatitis was reported in 26 patients (53.0%) and in 13 (25.5%) controls (p = 0.005). Dental enamel disorders were reported in 7 patients (14.3%) and in 0 controls (p = 0.002), with none having geographic tongue. We found non-specific tooth wear, characterized by loss of the mineralized tissue of the teeth, in 9 patients (18.3%) and in 3 (5.9%) controls (p = 0.05). (4) Conclusion: Recurrent aphthous stomatitis and enamel hypoplasia are \u201crisk indicators\u201d that may suggest that an individual has CD. We detected a high prevalence of non-specific tooth wear that can be caused by several factors such as malocclusion, sleep bruxism, parafunctional activity, and age.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu9121321","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,4]],"date-time":"2017-12-04T11:16:38Z","timestamp":1512386198000},"page":"1321","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":26,"title":["Tooth Wear Is Frequent in Adult Patients with Celiac Disease"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Massimo","family":"Amato","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, Medical School of Salerno, 84131 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabiana","family":"Zingone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, Medical School of Salerno, 84131 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3163-7170","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mario","family":"Caggiano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, Medical School of Salerno, 84131 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9568-0680","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paola","family":"Iovino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, Medical School of Salerno, 84131 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cristina","family":"Bucci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, Medical School of Salerno, 84131 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7426-1145","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carolina","family":"Ciacci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, Medical School of Salerno, 84131 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1210","DOI":"10.1136\/gutjnl-2013-306578","article-title":"Diagnosis and management of adult coeliac disease: Guidelines from the british society of gastroenterology","volume":"63","author":"Ludvigsson","year":"2014","journal-title":"Gut"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"43","DOI":"10.1136\/gutjnl-2011-301346","article-title":"The Oslo definitions for coeliac disease and related terms","volume":"62","author":"Ludvigsson","year":"2013","journal-title":"Gut"},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"466","DOI":"10.1136\/archdischild-2014-307105","article-title":"Socioeconomic variation in the incidence of childhood coeliac disease in the UK","volume":"100","author":"Zingone","year":"2015","journal-title":"Arch.
