Resumo
O consumo de drogas ilícitas, como cocaína e crack, apresenta efeitos extremamente prejudiciais à saúde bucal dos usuários. Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar e analisar as principais lesões na mucosa oral associadas ao consumo de cocaína e crack, por meio de uma revisão da literatura científica publicada nos últimos cinco anos (2018-2023) de artigos completos, publicados nos idiomas Português e Inglês, catalogados na base de dados bibliográficas, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), SciELO e Medical Publications (PubMed). Para a busca na base de dados BVS e SciELO, as palavras-chave utilizadas no foram: "Saúde bucal", "Cocaína" e "Crack". No Pubmed, foram os descritores “Oral health” “Crack” e “Cocaine”. Inicialmente foram selecionadas 48 pesquisas onde, após seleção dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, ficaram 5 trabalhos para a realização do estudo. Os resultados indicam que as lesões na mucosa oral são mais frequentes em usuários dependentes de crack e cocaína em comparação com indivíduos não viciados. Vários fatores contribuem para o aparecimento dessas lesões, como o calor excessivo gerado pelos cachimbos utilizados na administração do crack, o atrito direto do pó da cocaína nas gengivas, exposição à radiação ultravioleta e práticas sexuais desprotegidas. Essas lesões podem causar desconforto significativo e ter um impacto negativo na qualidade de vida dos pacientes, além de aumentar o risco de doenças mais graves. Portanto, é fundamental realizar estudos que abordem essas questões, visando melhorar o atendimento ambulatorial e a qualidade de vida das pessoas afetadas pelo estigma das drogas.
The consumption of illicit drugs, such as cocaine and crack, has extremely harmful effects on users' oral health. This study aimed to identify and analyze the main lesions in the oral mucosa associated with the consumption of cocaine and crack, through a review of the scientific literature published in the last five years (2018-2023) of complete articles, published in Portuguese and English, cataloged in the bibliographic database, Virtual Health Library (BVS), SciELO and Medical Publications (PubMed). For the search in the BVS and SciELO databases, the keywords used were: "Oral health", "Cocaine" and "Crack". In Pubmed, the descriptors were “Oral health”, “Crack” and “Cocaine”. Initially, 48 research were selected where, after selecting the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 5 works were left to carry out the study. The results indicate that lesions in the oral mucosa are more frequent in crack and cocaine dependent users compared to non-addicted individuals. Several factors contribute to the appearance of these lesions, such as the excessive heat generated by the pipes used to administer crack, direct rubbing of the cocaine powder on the gums, exposure to ultraviolet radiation and unprotected sexual practices. These injuries can cause significant discomfort and have a negative impact on patients' quality of life, in addition to increasing the risk of more serious illnesses. Therefore, it is essential to carry out studies that address these issues, aiming to improve outpatient care and the quality of life of people affected by the stigma of drugs.
