The contradictory effects of coffee intake on periodontal health: a systematic review

Abstract

Background: Drinking coffee is known to have both positive and negative aftermath on periodontal health. The current study is aiming to systematically review the impact of coffee consumption on periodontal health status. Methods: An article search was carried out in two electronic databases (PUBMED and Web of Sciences). The assessment of the included articles were conducted using Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal tool. Data were analyzed qualitatively. Result: A total of 10 articles were included in this study. Most (5) of the studies discovered a negative correlation between coffee intake and periodontal health, while 4 other studies found the protective effect of daily coffee consumption against alveolar bone loss. Last, only one study found that coffee intake did not relate with periodontitis. Conclusion: The effect of coffee consumption on periodontal health was fragmented since coffee has complex components that may give either beneficial effects or negative impact on periodontal health.

“…Periodontal disease is an inflammatory disease of the tissue around the teeth that begins with gingival inflammation and continues to damage the structure of other tooth-supporting tissue, such as cementum, periodontal tissue, and alveolar bone. 1,2 Based on the 2018 National Basic Health Research report, 3 in Indonesia, 73.1%-75% of the population have periodontal disease. The most common periodontal disease is gingival inflammation or gingivitis, with 13.7%-14.1% of patients experiencing bleeding gums.…”
