The aim of this work was to determine the frequency and nature of oral manifestations in a hypertensive patient.
The study sample consisted of 465 known hypertensive patients, between the age group of 20-80 years of which 250 patients were males and 215 were females. 105 were between the age group of 1-40 years, 136 in 41-50 years, 110 in 51-60 years, and 114 in 60 and above year of age. Data were statistically analyzed Student's t-test.
79.14% of the patients presented with Russell's periodontal index score ranging from 2- 4.9 which suggested an established periodontal lesion. The risk factors for old men and women to develop hypertension were 90%, among those who survived to ages 65 to 89 years.
The frequency of potential oral manifestations in patients with hypertension was significantly high, thus showing an association of gingival and periodontal pathology in hypertensive patients.
本研究旨在确定高血压患者口腔表现的频率及性质。
研究样本包括465名已知的高血压患者,年龄在20至80岁之间,其中250名为男性,215名为女性。105人年龄在1至40岁之间,136人在41至50岁之间,110人在51至60岁之间,114人年龄在60岁及以上。数据采用学生t检验进行统计学分析。
79.14%的患者Russell牙周指数评分在2至4.9之间,提示存在已确诊的牙周病变。在活到65至89岁的人群中,老年男性和女性患高血压的风险因素为90%。
高血压患者潜在口腔表现的频率显著较高,表明高血压患者存在牙龈和牙周病变的关联。
