5. Conclusions
- -
- People suffering from achalasia had a delayed diagnosis of the disease;

- The incidence of oral manifestations described by the participants was low and limited to dental erosion;
- -
- Females with achalasia seemed to be significantly affected by lower OHRQoL than males with achalasia.
