Its etiology is still unknown; however, the scientific evidence reports that occur more frequently in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus or chronic kidney disease.

Su etiología aún es desconocida; sin embargo, la evidencia científica reporta que se presenta con mayor frecuencia en pacientes de edad avanzada con diabetes mellitus o enfermedad renal crónica. Generalmente se identifica como hallazgo radiográfico sutil en imágenes maxilofaciales (radiografías panorámicas o periapicales posteriores). El objetivo de este artículo es reportar 6 casos de hallazgo radiográfico de calcificación de la arteria facial, con el fin que el odontólogo reconozca esta entidad y su fuerte asociación con enfermedades sistémicas de tal manera que el paciente pueda ser derivado de forma oportuna a un médico especialista y ser tratado adecuadamente.Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia2021-01-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.upch.edu.pe/index.php/REH/article/view/388110.20453/reh.v30i4.3881Revista Estomatológica Herediana; Vol. 30 No. 4 (2020): October -December; 278-284Revista Estomatológica Herediana; Vol. 30 Núm. 4 (2020): Octubre - Diciembre; 278-284Revista Estomatológica Herediana; v. 30 n. 4 (2020): Octubre - Diciembre; 278-2842225-76161019-4355reponame:Revistas - Universidad Peruana Cayetano Herediainstname:Universidad Peruana Cayetano Herediainstacron:UPCHspahttps://revistas.upch.edu.pe/index.php/REH/article/view/3881/4401Derechos de autor 2021 Fernando Russbelts Sthorayca Retamozo, Vilma Elizabeth Ruiz García de Chacóninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistas.upch.edu.pe:article/38812021-05-27T14:59:15Z |
