Hello! Wonderful and informative article. I am new to Wikiedu and learning to review and edit articles. As I read this article I would recommend adding Dementia to the list of conditions in the Geriatric Section. I would also recommend adding citations for the cardiovascular and respiratory sections.

Autism delaying tooth eruption

edit

I'm just looking at the Autism section, which quotes that "delayed tooth eruption can be seen in Autistic patients". The source it cites says "Tooth eruption may be delayed due to phenytoin-induced gingival hyperplasia. Phenytoin is commonly prescribed for people with autism." The way I read that is that the drug Phenytoin, which is sometimes given to people with autism, can cause delayed tooth eruption. Which the currently article wonkily says that people with autism can have delayed tooth eruptions.

Would be interested in other peoples input. Extraspoons (talk) 21:52, 25 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
