The Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) are a group of rare diseases characterized by enzyme deficiency that results in nondegradation of the glicosaminoglicans (GAGs). The aim of this study was to evaluate the periodontal status of all the patiente with MPS that are treated at the Hospital Infantil Albert Sabin and at the Hospital Geral César Cals, in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. A number of 18 patients were evaluated by a dentist that was previously calibrated, which registered the Pernus Index (IP), Visible Bacterium Plaque Index (IPB-V), Gingival Bleeding Index (ISG), PSR and Index that shows number of teeth that showed cavities, tooth loss or restoration (CPO-D/ceo-d). In relation to the gingival volume it was observed that 72,2% of the patients showed that the gingival was not in it´s regular size. On the evaluation of dental hygiene, it was observed that 77,8% of the patients showed ISG greater than 10% and 66,6% of the patients showed IPB-V greater than 40%. In relation to PSR, 94,4% of the patients showed scored 1 which means gingival bleeding and 5,6% showed score 2 which means calculus besides gingival bleeding. And in relation to CPO-D/ceo-d 61,1% of the patients showed score greater than 5. In a general way it was observed that the periodontal status of the patients is a situation that requires more care, showing characteristics like gingival hyperplasias besides high scores of ISG, IPB-V and CPO-D/ceo-d.
