DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.
Due to the joint development from the ectoderm, diseases of the teeth and the skin can occur in close connection. These include genetic, infectious and non-infectious inflammatory and immunologically accentuated diseases. Thus, some systemic diseases in their syndromal complexity only reveal themselves in an overall view (and recording) of their symptoms. Thus, the assessment of dental diseases is also part of the scope of a comprehensive, subtle dermatological diagnosis.
