Acromegaly is caused by an excessive secretion of growth hormone and the secondary elevation of IGF-1 levels, leading to progressive changes in multiple body systems, including the craniofacial region and oral cavity. Dental manifestations such as mandibular overgrowth, macroglossia, malocclusion, periodontal disease, and prosthetic difficulties represent not only a clinical component of the disease but also a significant therapeutic and diagnostic challenge. The aim of this review is to present the current state of knowledge on the relationship between acromegaly and oral health and to analyze the role of interdisciplinary collaboration between endocrinologists and dentists in patient care. For this narrative review, a literature search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases covering the period from 2000 to 2025. Sixty-two peer-reviewed publications meeting the methodological and thematic criteria were included in the analysis, including original studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and case reports. The results indicate significant correlations between disease activity and the severity of periodontal and microbiological changes, while effective endocrine treatment only results in the partial regression of morphological changes. Particular attention was given to the role of the dentist in recognizing the early symptoms of the disease, planning prosthetic and surgical treatment, and monitoring therapy-related complications. Interdisciplinary collaboration models, including integrated clinics and co-managed care, were also described as optimal systemic solutions for improving treatment quality. The conclusion drawn from the analysis are as follows: there is a need for the permanent integration of dentistry into the standard of interdisciplinary care for patients with acromegaly, in both diagnostic and therapeutic dimensions. Increasing awareness among dentists and developing integrated collaboration models may reduce the time to diagnosis, improve patients’ quality of life, and enable the more effective management of craniofacial complications in the course of this rare disease.

Background: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is considered a potential adjunctive modality to enhance tissue regeneration in oral and maxillofacial surgery. By increasing tissue oxygen availability, HBOT may support bone and soft-tissue repair under hypoxic and chronically inflamed conditions. Aim: This narrative review evaluates current experimental and clinical evidence regarding HBOT in high-risk dental indications, including osteoradionecrosis (ORN), medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ), chronic osteomyelitis, poorly healing postoperative wounds, and procedures in patients with systemic comorbidities. Methods: A structured search of PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library identified 123 relevant English-language publications (from 1 January 2000–September 2025) addressing HBOT mechanisms and clinical applications in oral and maxillofacial surgery, including clinical trials, observational studies, preclinical models, and systematic reviews. Results: Available evidence suggests that HBOT may improve healing outcomes and reduce complication rates in early-stage ORN and MRONJ when used as an adjunct to surgery and systemic therapy. However, findings in implantology—particularly in irradiated or diabetic patients—and in periodontal therapy remain limited, heterogeneous, and methodologically inconsistent. Conclusions: HBOT may be considered in selected clinical scenarios, particularly where healing is impaired by hypoxia or systemic disease. Nevertheless, current evidence remains insufficient to support routine use. Standardized, high-quality studies with clearly defined endpoints and uniform therapeutic protocols are needed to determine its clinical effectiveness and optimal indications.
