Objectives: To evaluate the association of poor oral health conditions, such as caries, tooth loss, and tooth loss, with overweight and obesity in older adults and to complement evidence from the Chinese community to confirm this association. Methods: This retrospective study involved health examination and follow-up data of 953 older adults from the Sichuan Province of China from 2021 to 2023. Oral health status, namely the Decayed, Missing, and Filled Teeth (DMFT) index, was used as the exposure factor, whereas body mass index (BMI) was used as the outcome indicator. The influence of confounding variables was controlled. BMI changes in older adults with different levels of oral health over 3 years were retrospectively followed up. Additionally, a Cox proportional hazard model was used to determine the association. Results: Overweight and obesity were prevalent in 29.3% and 20.4% of older adults with poor and good oral health status, respectively (P<0.001). After controlling for the confounding factors, the Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that the DMFT index was associated with overweight or obesity (BMI) (hazards ratio=1.86, 95% confidence interval: 1.52–2.28). Overweight and obesity were less prevalent in older adults with fewer chronic diseases, higher frequency of physical exercise, and better oral health-related behaviors. Conclusions: Oral health status is associated with overweight and obesity in older adults, particularly in those with caries, missing teeth, and tooth loss as the primary symptoms. These signs may lead to altered food choices and increase the risk of overweight and obesity.
