to determine the prevalence, severity and extent of chronic periodontitis among 30-60 year old adults residing in Colombo district, Sri Lanka.
a cross-sectional study with interviews and oral examinations.
1400, 30-60 year olds residing in Colombo district.
the prevalence of mild, moderate and severe chronic periodontits was 1.4%, 36.1% and 13.5% respectively and the prevalence was significantly associated with sex, age group, ethnicity, level of education, smoking status and self-reported diabetes. The mean probing pocket depth (PPD) was 2.05mm (SE=0.02) and of the sample, 77% and 31% had at least one site with PPD of ≥4 and ≥6mm respectively. The mean clinical attachment loss (CAL) was 2.53mm (SE=0.03) and 99% and 81% of the sample had at least one site with CAL of ≥3mm and ≥5mm respectively. The extent of periodontitis determined according to the mean percentage of sites with ≥4 and ≥6mm of PPD were 8.40 (SE=0.34) and 1.37 (SE=0.11) respectively. Further, the extent of periodontitis according to the mean percentages of sites with ≥3 and ≥5mm of CAL were 39.73 (SE=0.66) and 10.95 (SE=0.43) respectively.
the prevalence, severity and extent of chronic periodontits are high among adults in Colombo district. Their periodontal status was poorer than in previously reported studies conducted in the same district.
确定居住在斯里兰卡科伦坡地区30至60岁成年人中慢性牙周炎的患病率、严重程度和范围。
一项采用访谈和口腔检查的横断面研究。
1400名居住在科伦坡地区的30至60岁成年人。
轻度、中度和重度慢性牙周炎的患病率分别为1.4%、36.1%和13.5%，且该患病率与性别、年龄组、种族、教育程度、吸烟状况及自我报告的糖尿病显著相关。平均探诊深度（PPD）为2.05毫米（标准误=0.02），在样本中，分别有77%和31%的人至少有一个部位的PPD≥4毫米和≥6毫米。平均临床附着丧失（CAL）为2.53毫米（标准误=0.03），样本中分别有99%和81%的人至少有一个部位的CAL≥3毫米和≥5毫米。根据PPD≥4毫米和≥6毫米部位的平均百分比确定的牙周炎范围分别为8.40（标准误=0.34）和1.37（标准误=0.11）。此外，根据CAL≥3毫米和≥5毫米部位的平均百分比确定的牙周炎范围分别为39.73（标准误=0.66）和10.95（标准误=0.43）。
科伦坡地区成年人中慢性牙周炎的患病率、严重程度和范围较高。他们的牙周状况比之前在同一地区进行的研究所报告的情况更差。
