Influence of Smoking on Periodontal Healing One Year After Active Treatment

Periodontal DiseasesSmoking

The aim of this study was to investigate whether cigarette smoking had any impact on the clinical outcomes 1 year after active periodontal treatment. Eligible for the study were 5680 individuals 20-85 years, referred to the specialised clinic for periodontal treatment at Gävle County Hospital between the years of 1980 and 2015. Before examination, all individuals filled in a questionnaire regarding their medical health, medication and smoking habits. Excluded were edentulous individuals and where clinical data 1-year after active treatment, or smoking habits were missing (n=1453). Complete data for analyses was available for 4227 individuals.

Third Molar: Caries, Periodontal Desease and Quality of Life

CariesPeriodontal Diseases

Caries and periodontal disease are chronic diseases of the oral cavity. The incidence of caries and periodontal disease can vary depending on the position of the third molar, The aim of this study was to verify possible associations between oral health-related quality of life (QoL), periodontal disease, caries lesions and the position of the lower third molar.

Assess the Effect of Treating Periodontal Disease on Cardiovascular Function in Young Adults

Periodontal DiseaseAtherosclerosis

We propose to examine a population of Native Americans who have had little or no dental care, and to determine if periodontal disease is associated with early signs of vascular dysfunction or systemic inflammation. We then propose to treat the periodontitis and re-evaluate vascular function. We will determine if gingivitis or mild/moderate periodontitis is associated with detectable vascular dysfunction. Microbial metagenomics will be correlated with vascular function.

A Comparison Between the Repeatability of Probing Pocket Depths Achieved With Manual and Automated...

Periodontal Disease

The aim of the study is to determine the best method for measuring the extent and severity of the gum disease by comparing the repeatability of probing depths achieved by a manual probe when compared to an automated probe. Hypothesis The null hypothesis to be tested includes The automated probe does not improve the reproducibility of periodontal probing when compared to manual probing recordings The automated probe shows no advantage when comparing the reproducibility of Moderate sites Deep sites Single vs. multirooted teeth Different sextants Different surfaces of teeth Buccal vs. palatal/lingual Mesial vs. mid vs. distal

Relationship Analysis Between Periodontal Disease and Atherosclerosis in Japanese Medical Cooperation...

Periodontal DiseaseAtherosclerosis

Objective: We aimed at analyzing the relationship between periodontal disease and atherosclerosis in medical treatment and periodontal treatment under medical and dental care across borders in a local cooperation system of Japanese medical services. Materials and methods: A prospective multi-center case cohort study was conducted on 37 ambulatory medical patients (with lifestyle-related diseases under consultation in either of the medical clinics registered as collaborative investigation facilities) and 79 periodontal patients (who were seen by the dental clinics registered as collaborative investigation facilities). Medical treatment and clinical periodontal treatment were provided on the subjects under medical and dental care across borders by each internal medicine and dental clinics. Systemic examination of lifestyle-related disease and periodontal examination were performed before and after periodontal treatment, and the relationships between periodontal and atherosclerosis-related clinical markers were analyzed before and after periodontal treatment.

Periodontal Status in Patients With Chronic Skin Diseases

Periodontal DiseasesPsoriasis3 more

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the periodontal status of chronic skin disease (CSD) patients with healthy controls. Material and method: 109 patients and 37 healthy subjects were included in this study. Parameters evaluated included bleeding on probing index (BOP), periodontal pocket depths (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), simplified debris index (DI), simplified calculus index (CI), and the presence of oral lesions. Clinical parameters were measured and compared in the two groups. The significant level was set at 0.05.
