The Challenge Of Orthodonic
Treatment Against Sickle Anemia: Fear Or Lack Of Information? by Luíza Trindade Vilela* in
Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS)
Sickle cell anemia is a hematologic disease
with hereditary etiology. Considered a public health issue, it has a high
frequency in the population, being the most prevalent genetic disease in
Brazil, especially in feoderms. The growing miscegenation in the country
justifies the increase of the disease. Sickle cell anemia is a hereditary type
of chronic hemolytic anemia caused by the genetic mutation of the hemoglobin
molecule, where the beta globin gene originates, instead of hemoglobin A (HbA),
an altered hemoglobin: Hemoglobin S (HbS) [1,2]. The disease affects various
body tissues, including the mouth.
