“…The TOHNN study was a cross‐sectional study of adults, 20 to 79 years old, living in Troms County, Norway. The sampling and invitation procedures have been described in detail elsewhere . In brief, 3000 individuals were randomly selected from the population registry by the National Statistical Institute of Norway.…”

“…Height (m) and weight (kg) were measured at time of examination, and body mass index (BMI, kg/m 2 ) was calculated. Inter‐examiner reliability of PD measurements was assessed between each of the examiners and the experienced periodontist at the site level (median intraclass correlation coefficient: 0.81, range: 0.43‐0.94), described in detail elsewhere . Inter‐examiner reliability was not assessed for registration of BOP and dental plaque.…”

Background and objective The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of smoking on the site‐specific association between bleeding on gingival probing and supragingival plaque and to assess whether this differs in different regions of the dentition. Methods Data from a representative sample of 1911 adults (20‐79 years old) in Northern Norway were analyzed. Periodontal examinations consisted of full‐mouth recordings of periodontal probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP), and presence of supragingival plaque. Smoking status and background characteristics were self‐reported by questionnaire. The association between plaque and BOP was assessed in several three‐level (subject, tooth, and site) random intercept logistic regression models adjusted for PD, smoking status, socioeconomic factors, and body mass index. In a further model, it was assessed whether the association between supragingival plaque and BOP differed in different parts of the dentition. Results For plaque‐free sites, bleeding tendency was lower in smokers, the odds ratio (OR) was 0.773 with a 95% confidence interval of 0.678‐0.881 as compared to non‐smokers (OR: 1; ref., P < .001). The odds of BOP at plaque‐covered sites in non‐smokers were increased twofold (OR: 2.117; 2.059‐2.177). Albeit bleeding tendency was slightly increased in plaque‐covered sites in smokers, it was considerably lower as compared to plaque‐covered sites in non‐smokers (OR: 1.459; 1.282‐1.662, P < .001). Smoking ≥ 20 pack‐years further attenuated the association. In smokers, the odds of BOP were reduced in all parts of the dentition, lower and upper anterior and posterior teeth (χfalse(4false)2= 32.043, P < .001). When restricting the data to younger adults (20‐34 year old), smoking had only a slight effect on the association between plaque and BOP. For plaque‐free and plaque‐covered sites, differences in ORs were not statistically noticeable (P = .221 and P = .235, respectively). Conclusions Smoking considerably attenuates the site‐specific association between plaque and BOP with a dose‐dependent effect. The effect of smoking did not differ across tooth types.

“…In Norwegian circumpolar communities, the SP prevalence of 9.1% was found [15]. But a study of large population in West Pomerania in the former East Germany found 20% of SP [9] whereas NHANES 2009-2012 estimated that about 8.9% of the US adult population aged 30 years and older had SP [8].…”

Purpose: Severe periodontitis (SP) is the sixth most prevalent disease worldwide. Prevalence and incidence are poorly reported in DR Congo. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of SP and to compare its profile with that of mild to moderate periodontitis (MMP). Materials and Methods: Four hundred and four patients from four hospitals of Kinshasa City Capital participated in this study. Probing pocket depth (PPD) at six sites per tooth, bleeding on probing (BoP) and plaque index (PIl) were the main clinical parameters assessed. Results: Out of 404 patients examined in this study, 92 (22.8%) had severe periodontitis and 276 (68.3%) had mild to moderate periodontitis. Among patients with SP, 48 (52%) were female, 44 (48%) were male and 63% of them had a PPD of 6 mm. SP was significantly different from MMP according to patients age, 47.3 ± 18.6 versus 32.87 ± 14.40 years old, p < 0.001; plaque index, 1.153 ± 0.39 versus 0.90 ± 0.39, p < 0.001; BoP, 26.65 versus 17.04, p < 0.001. Conclusion: The Frequency of SP is relatively high in patients attending dental services in Kinshasa City and SP is significantly different from MMP.

“…Muñoz et al Moreover, in the present study, 40% of the participants were smokers. The relationship between smoking and periodontal disease is a well-known phenomenon (38) and this factor can be considered as a limitation. Owing to the preliminary design of the study the groups were unavoidably prone to the confounding effects of several variables such as smoking etc.…”

Gastroesophageal refluxdisease and laryngopharyngeal reflux are common public health problems, which are known to effect oral cavity. Subjective assessment of symptom severity in patients with gastroesophageal reflux and laryngopharyngeal reflux can be made with self-reported "Reflux Symptom Index". In this study, possible relation of dental and periodontal conditions with Reflux Symptom Index scores was evaluated. Material and Methods:This study was performed with 135 dental outpatients (52 female and 83 male; aged between 18-63 years). Demographic and clinical variables were procured and Reflux Symptom Index (a nine item and 45-point scale questionnaire) scores were evaluated. Dental and periodontal conditions were assessed with DMFT (decayed, missing, filled teeth) index and Community Periodontal Index scores. Patients were divided into two subgroups according to their RSI values (Reflux Symptom Index ≤13; normal and Reflux Symptom Index >13; abnormal) and differences were statistically investigated.Results: Reflux Symptom Index subgroups showed significant difference in all intraoral parameters except decayed teeth number (p<0.05). In addition, Reflux Symptom Index scores did not show constant correlations with DMFT and Community Periodontal Index scores (p>0.05). Conclusion:Self-reported Reflux Symptom Index merits further investigation before declaring dental and periodontal conclusions in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease and laryngopharyngeal reflux. Amaç: Oral kaviteyi etkilediği bilinen gastroözofageal reflü hastalığı ve larengofarengeal reflü genel toplum sağlığı problemidir. Gastroözofageal reflü ve larengofaringeal reflü hastalarında semptom şiddetinin subjektif olarak değerlendirilmesi hasta tarafından beyan edilen "Reflü Semptom İndeksi" ile yapılabilir. Bu çalışmada, dental ve periodontal durumların Reflü Semptom İndeksi skorları ile olası ilişkisi değerlendirildi. Gereç veYöntemler: Bu çalışma, ayakta tedavi gören 135 hasta (52 kadın 83 erkek, yaşları 18-63 yıl) ile gerçekleştirildi. Demografik ve klinik değişkenler alındı ve Reflü Semptom İndeksi (dokuz madde ve 45 puanlı anket) skorları değerlendirildi. Dental ve periodontal durumlar DMFT (çürükkayıp-dolgulu diş) indeksi ve Toplum Periodontal İndeks skorları ile değerlendirildi. Hastalar Reflü Semptom İndeksi değerlerine göre (Reflü Semptom İndeksi ≤ 13, normal ve Reflü Semptom İndeksi >13; anormal) iki alt gruba ayrıldı ve istatistiksel farklılıklar araştırıldı. Bulgular: Reflü Semptom İndeksi alt grupları çürük diş sayısı hariç tüm intraoral parametrelerde anlamlı farklılık gösterdi (p<0.05). Buna ek olarak Reflü Semptom İndeksi skorları DMFT ve Toplum Periodontal İndeks skorları ile sabit korelasyon göstermedi (p>0.05). Sonuç: Gastroözofageal reflü ve larengofaringeal reflülü hastaların dental ve periodontal durum sonuçları bildirilmeden önce hasta tarafından beyan edilmiş Reflü Semptom İndeksi hakkında daha fazla araştırma yapılması gerekir.
