“…Patients with blood group B appeared to be at greater risk of developing more severe forms of periodontitis. Koregol, et al [12], stated that blood group type A showed a significantly higher percentage in the gingivitis group, blood group O showed a higher incidence in the periodontal group. The blood group AB showed the least percentage of periodontal diseases.…”

Background: Malocclusion shares the third highest prevalence among oral pathologies, second to tooth decay and periodontal diseases. Objectives: In general, many studies have been conducted to find out the association between blood groups and oral and dental pathologies, for instance, some have succeeded; others have not due to the geographic diversity. So the study aimed to explore the relationship of ABO blood groups with classes of malocclusion and relative prevalence of these characters in males and females of a defined population. Method: The current study was performed on 500 individuals with an age range of 15 to 45 years, along with permanent dentition only, reporting to the department of orthodontics of Punjab dental hospital, Lahore. Complete details about the classes of malocclusion and blood group of the subjects were noted in accordance with the ABO blood group system. The sample was divided into three groups, i.e., Class I, Class II, and Class III. Data were analyzed statistically by using SPSS 21.0. Pearson Chi-square was used as statistical analysis to get the association of classes of malocclusion with blood group type. Result: A significant difference between the prevalence of classes of dental malocclusion in relation to blood group types was found among both genders. Conclusion: In conclusion, there was gender wise association difference between the classes of dental malocclusion and blood group types. The study also covered the gender wise prevalence of dental malocclusion in all the four blood groups which are A, B, AB and O. The new findings will be helpful for clinicians with regards to preventive orthodontics. The research findings are a good and informative addition to the present literature as well as provides a ground for further research studies in the same area.

“…Surprisingly, limited number of studies has been conducted to determine the association of ABO blood group with periodontal diseases. [ 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 ] Some researchers claimed that there was relationship between ABO blood group and periodontal diseases, whereas others could not find any, which could be attributed to the geographic diversity in the population groups. The studies by Koregol et al .…”

“…The studies by Koregol et al . [ 18 ] and Demir et al . [ 19 ] showed that gingivitis was more common in blood Group A and periodontitis was more common in blood Group O, while another study by Al Ghamdi[ 20 ] showed that blood Group B was found to be at greater risk for periodontitis.…”

Background:The knowledge of the ABO blood group phenotype of the patients and their correlation with the periodontal disease maybe important in the development of early treatment strategies, and it would be helpful to target non-responding areas to periodontal therapy of the susceptible individuals.Aims:The present study was conducted to determine whether there was any correlation between periodontal diseases and ABO blood groups and Rh factor.Material and Method:This study was carried out on 537 subjects attending Faculty of Dental Sciences OPD in BHU. Subjects were divided into three groups: group I (healthy subjects), group II (subjects with gingivitis), and group III (subjects with periodontitis) based on periodontal examination (Gingival index, Bleeding Index, Probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level). ABO Blood grouping were done and correlated with the periodontal status of study subjects. Statistical Analysis: Data was analyzed using the statistical software namely Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS, Version 16, IBM Analytics) and Systat 8.0.Results:In this study, there was a greater prevalence of gingivitis in blood group O and periodontitis in blood group B. The blood group AB showed the least prevalence of periodontal diseases. Similarly gingivitis and peridontitis were significantly higher among Rhesus positive groups when compared with Rhesus negative groups.Conclusion:Considering the results of this study, it can be concluded that ABO blood groups and Rh factor could be a risk factor for the development of periodontal disease.

Background:The correlation between certain systemic diseases and ABO blood group is a well-documented fact. The association between periodontal disease and ABO blood group is not studied in relation to a specific geographic location. Here is a study conducted on a group of patients belonging to South Kanara district of Karnataka state.Materials and Methods:A total of 750 subjects aged between 30and 38 years belonging to South Kanara district were selected on random basis. The study subjects were segregated into healthy/mild gingivitis, moderate/severe gingivitis, and periodontitis group, based on Loe and Silness index and clinical attachment loss as criteria. The study group was further categorized and graded using Ramfjord's periodontal disease index. Blood samples were collected to identify ABO blood group.Results:Prevalence of blood group O was more in South Kanara district, followed by blood groups B and A, and the least prevalent was AB. The percentage distribution of subjects with blood groups O and AB was more in healthy/mild gingivitis group (group I) and moderate/severe gingivitis group (group II), while subjects with blood groups B and A were more in periodontitis group III. There was increased prevalence of subjects with blood groups O and AB with healthy periodontium, while subjects with blood groups B and A showed inclination toward diseased periodontium.Conclusion:There is a correlation existing between periodontal disease and ABO blood group in this geographic location. This association can be due to various blood group antigens acting as receptors for infectious agents associated with periodontal disease. This broad correlation between periodontal disease and ABO blood group also points toward susceptibility ofthe subjects with certain blood groups to periodontal disease.
