BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of current hormonal contraceptive medication on periodontal health in young females.
METHODS
Fifty women aged 20 to 35 years (mean +/- SD: 29.7 +/- 4.7 years) had a comprehensive periodontal examination. Current and previous contraceptive pill use was assessed by a questionnaire. Periodontal assessment included plaque index, gingival index, probing depth, and attachment level at six sites per tooth. The periodontal health of current pill users was compared to that of women not taking the pill.
RESULTS
Forty-two percent of subjects were taking the contraceptive pill at the time of periodontal examination. Current pill users had deeper mean probing depths compared to non-users (3.3 mm versus 2.7 mm; P = 0.006) and more severe attachment loss (2.6 mm versus 1.7 mm; P = 0.015). Pill users had more sites with bleeding on probing (44.0% versus 31.1%; P = 0.017).
CONCLUSION
Current users of oral contraceptives had poorer periodontal health.
背景
本研究旨在调查当前激素避孕药物对年轻女性牙周健康的影响。
方法
五十名年龄在20至35岁之间（平均±标准差：29.7±4.7岁）的女性接受了全面的牙周检查。通过问卷调查评估当前和既往的避孕药使用情况。牙周评估包括每颗牙齿六个部位的菌斑指数、牙龈指数、探诊深度和附着水平。将当前服用避孕药的女性的牙周健康状况与未服用避孕药的女性进行比较。
结果
42%的受试者在进行牙周检查时正在服用避孕药。与未使用者相比，当前服用避孕药的使用者平均探诊深度更深（3.3毫米对2.7毫米；P = 0.006），附着丧失更严重（2.6毫米对1.7毫米；P = 0.015）。服用避孕药的使用者探诊出血的部位更多（44.0%对31.1%；P = 0.017）。
结论
当前口服避孕药使用者的牙周健康状况较差。
