Resumo:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an inherited recessive disease that impairs muscular neuromotor development and affects the daily kinetic activities of both upper and lower limbs. DMD induces systemic implications such as for overweight, gastric alterations, tachycardia, osteoporosis, respiratory insufficiency, and arterial hypertension. This case report aimed to describe the clinical profile of a DMD patient and the 5-year multidisciplinary treatment of systemic implications by dentists and other healthcare professionals. It highlights the importance of the drugs to prevent systemic diseases and adequate multidisciplinary treatment.
