“…In our study, the younger group (workers aged < 45 years) showed significant associations between occupational noise and periodontitis after full adjustment in the exposed group with a severe problem with noise exposure (Table ). Some studies have reported that age is negatively associated with work ability and the critical age for decreasing tolerance to shift work is between 40 and 50 years . However, evidences linking age with work tolerance in previous studies remain inconclusive .…”

Aim The aims of this study were to examine inequalities in periodontitis and tooth loss among South Korean adults using the Wright's Neo‐Marxian social class (NMSC) indicator and to assess the impact of material, psychosocial, health behavioural and workplace environmental factors in the association of social class with oral health. Methods This study used the data from the 4th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey with 6710 participants aged 19‐54 years old. Participants were classified into 12 social class positions based on the Wright's social class map. Healthy gum and absence of tooth loss were the health outcomes. Mediating factors were material (M), psychosocial (PS), health behavioural (HB) and workplace environmental (WPE) factors. A series of logistic regressions were performed to analyse the data. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to report the results. Results For the absence of periodontal pockets status, expert supervisors were the healthiest periodontal group among the social classes (OR = 2.15 95% CI 1.59‐2.90) in the age and gender adjusted model. For the absence of tooth loss, skilled workers had the highest OR for absence of tooth loss (OR = 1.64 95% CI 1.31‐2.05) in the age‐ and gender‐adjusted model. For absence of periodontal pockets, the explanatory power of the M factor was the highest in all social class positions except for nonskilled supervisors followed by the HB factor. Additionally, the absence of tooth loss had a fairly similar pattern. The explanatory power of the M factor was the highest in all social class positions except for the petty bourgeoisie (highest: HB) and nonskilled supervisors (highest: WPE) followed by the HB and WPE factors. Conclusion There were nongradient oral health inequalities among the South Korean population according to the NMSC. Oral health promotion programmes that focus on changing the socioeconomic environment and health behaviours should be implemented.

“…Persons with periodontitis already show a higher chance of acquiring these diseases within a shift work society. [13] Type 2 Diabetes to cause Periodontitis It has been determined that susceptibility to Periodontitis is increased almost threefold in patients suffering from Type 2 Diabetes. [1] Much of the research gathered to support this relationship comes from studies performed on Pima Indians.…”

“…Results indicate that at risk workers working irregular shifts show a higher percentage of periodontitis, with most at risk groups to be less than the age of 45. [13] Shift work also results in increased risk of obesity and Type 2 Diabetes due to irregular sleep schedules and irregular metabolism due to eating at wrong times. Activities affecting a person's circadian rhythm can directly impose upon risks such as periodontitis, Type 2 Diabetes, and obesity, which can all be the cause of one another.…”

Periodontitis is a chronic, inflammatory disease that is characterized by swollen gums, degradation of jaw structure, and potentially tooth loss. Like Periodontitis, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is also highly prevalent and largely multifactorial. Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which higher than normal blood glucose levels cannot be properly maintained as the body's normal mechanism of maintaining proper blood glucose levels, the release of insulin from pancreatic islet β-cells, becomes ineffective. The purpose of this literature review is to explore the relationship between the incidences of Periodontitis and Type 2 Diabetes. The risk that Type 2 Diabetes poses for the incidence of Periodontitis is analyzed. Patients afflicted with Type 2 Diabetes were found to be approximately three times as likely to eventually suffer from Periodontitis, as well. There is also emerging evidence supporting the correlation between the degree of hyperglycemia and severity of Periodontitis. Potential underlying mechanisms linking the two conditions at the cellular level have been discussed. Immune functioning and cytokine biology are among discussed mechanisms. Recent discoveries have also suggested that Periodontitis may also negatively impact glycemic control. As a result, not only should healthcare providers emphasize oral health as part of Type 2 Diabetes management, but healthy eating and physical activity should be among recommendations that make up Periodontal management.
