Various systemic disorders such as cardiovascular, diabetes, and osteoporosis are linked to periodontitis. Obesity is one such epidemic, and although many studies have addressed its relationship with periodontitis, the mechanism still remains unclear.
This study aims to assess the association between obesity and its determinants with clinical periodontal parameters in adult patients visiting a dental college in Haryana.
This cross-sectional study was performed in 317 patients visiting a dental college in Gurugram. Obesity parameters such as body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BF%), waist circumference (WC), and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were assessed using body fat analyzer (Omron HBF 701). Depending on their BMI, individuals were stratified as overweight (OW), Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 obese. Periodontal status was assessed by plaque index, gingival index, probing pocket depth (PPD), and clinical attachment level. These periodontal parameters were correlated with BMI, BF%, WC, and WHR. Statistical analysis was done, and ≤ 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.
The prevalence of periodontitis in OW, Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 obese was 16.4%, 79.2%, 2.8%, and 1.6%, respectively. PPD was significantly associated with obesity determinants, especially among Class 2 and Class 3 obese individuals. Similarly, BF% was associated with all the periodontal parameters.
Within the restrictions of the study, it can be concluded that obesity and chronic periodontitis are interlinked.
各种全身性疾病，如心血管疾病、糖尿病和骨质疏松症，都与牙周炎有关。肥胖就是这样一种流行病，尽管许多研究探讨了其与牙周炎的关系，但其机制仍不清楚。
本研究旨在评估肥胖及其决定因素与访问哈里亚纳邦一所牙科学院的成年患者临床牙周参数之间的关联。
本横断面研究在访问古尔冈一所牙科学院的317名患者中进行。使用体脂分析仪（欧姆龙HBF 701）评估肥胖参数，如体重指数（BMI）、体脂百分比（BF%）、腰围（WC）和腰臀比（WHR）。根据BMI，个体被分层为超重（OW）、1级、2级和3级肥胖。通过菌斑指数、牙龈指数、探诊袋深度（PPD）和临床附着水平评估牙周状况。这些牙周参数与BMI、BF%、WC和WHR相关。进行了统计分析，P≤0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
超重、1级、2级和3级肥胖患者的牙周炎患病率分别为16.4%、79.2%、2.8%和1.6%。PPD与肥胖决定因素显著相关，尤其是在2级和3级肥胖个体中。同样，BF%与所有牙周参数相关。
在本研究的限制范围内，可以得出肥胖与慢性牙周炎相互关联的结论。
