OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the prevalence and severity of plaque-induced gingivitis among a Saudi adult population in Riyadh region.
METHODS
Three hundred and eighty-five eligible participants in this cross-sectional study were recruited from routine dental patients attending the oral diagnosis clinic at Al-Farabi College in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from June 2013 to December 2013. A clinical examination was performed by 2 dentists to measure the gingival and plaque indices of Löe and Silness for each participant.
RESULTS
The prevalence of gingivitis was 100% among adult subjects aged between 18-40 years old. Moreover, the mean gingival index was 1.68±0.31, which indicates a moderate gingival inflammation. In fact, males showed more severe signs of gingival inflammation compared with females (p=0.001). In addition, the mean plaque index was 0.875±0.49, which indicates a good plaque status of the participants. Interestingly, the age was not related either to the gingival inflammation (p=0.13), or to the amount of plaque accumulation (p=0.17). However, males were more affected than females (p=0.005).
CONCLUSION
The results of this study show that plaque accumulation is strongly associated with high prevalence of moderate to severe gingivitis among Saudi subjects.
目的
评估利雅得地区沙特成年人群中菌斑性牙龈炎的患病率及严重程度。
方法
2013年6月至2013年12月期间，从沙特阿拉伯利雅得法拉比学院口腔诊断诊所的常规牙科患者中招募了385名符合条件的参与者，进行这项横断面研究。由2名牙医进行临床检查，以测量每位参与者的牙龈指数和洛氏与西尔斯菌斑指数。
结果
18至40岁的成年受试者中牙龈炎患病率为100%。此外，平均牙龈指数为1.68±0.31，表明存在中度牙龈炎症。事实上，男性的牙龈炎症迹象比女性更严重（p = 0.001）。此外，平均菌斑指数为0.875±0.49，表明参与者的菌斑状况良好。有趣的是，年龄与牙龈炎症（p = 0.13）或菌斑堆积量（p = 0.17）均无关联。然而，男性比女性受影响更大（p = 0.005）。
结论
本研究结果表明，在沙特受试者中，菌斑堆积与中度至重度牙龈炎的高患病率密切相关。
