Dai T, Dai Q. Effect of blood lead levels on periodontitis in American adults: a cross-sectional analysis from the national health and nutrition examination survey. BMC Oral Health 2024; 24:364. [PMID: 38515151 PMCID: PMC10956260 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-04068-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary objective of this study was to assess the impact of blood lead levels on the development and progression of periodontitis. METHODS This study included 8600 participants from the National Nutrition and Health Examination Survey conducted the United States between 2009 and 2014. The exposure variable was the blood lead level, while the outcome variable was periodontitis. To evaluate the relationship between the blood lead level and periodontitis, a multivariate logistic regression model was used. RESULTS A positive association was observed between blood lead levels and the risk of periodontitis in Model 1 (OR = 7.04, 95% CI = 5.95-8.31). After adjusting for age (continuous), sex, ethnicity, and BMI (continuous) in Model 2, the significant association between blood lead levels and periodontitis risk remained evident (OR = 3.06, 95% CI: 2.54-3.70). Consequently, even after comprehensive adjustment for potential confounding factors in Model 3, the robust association between blood lead levels and periodontitis risk persisted (OR = 2.08, 95% CI = 1.67-2.60). When considering the serum lead concentration as a categorical variable and after adjusting for potential confounders in Model 3, we observed that the odds ratios (ORs) of periodontitis in the T2 (0.94 µg/dL-1.60 µg/dL) and T3 (lead ≥ 1.60 µg/dL) groups increased from 1.27 (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.11-1.44) to 1.57 (OR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.36-1.81) compared to T1 group. Subgroup analysis revealed no effect modifiers. CONCLUSIONS Our main findings suggest that there is no safe range of blood lead levels regarding periodontitis risk and that increasing blood lead levels can significantly increase the prevalence of periodontitis.

Abstract
There is inconclusive evidence about the link between the severity and prevalence of periodontitis in obese adults. Therefore, this systematic review aims to explore the possibility of significant evidence on the association between obesity and periodontitis and to determine the necessity to consider obesity as a risk factor for periodontitis. We followed the PRISMA protocol, and studies that met the eligibility criteria were included in this review. The risk of bias in individual studies was also evaluated. This review included 15 observational studies (9 cross-sectional studies, 2 case-control, and 4 cohort studies). The total study subjects from these studies were 6603 (males = 3432; females = 3171). Most studies showed a significant association between obesity and periodontitis. Among these studies, a few showed obese females to be at a higher risk, and one study found no association between obesity and periodontal disease at all. Based on the evidence obtained from this review, the body mass index (BMI) should be routinely assessed in patients to assess the risk for periodontal disease and to offer personalized management of periodontitis. Based on the findings of this review, we recommend the need to initiate awareness among clinicians and implement dental hygiene care prevention measures for obese patients.

Abstract
Background Childhood obesity is a serious medical condition that affects children and adolescents. Being overweight and obese are important risk factors for various adult diseases including diabetes, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular disease, hypertension, and periodontal diseases. This study aimed to compare the periodontal findings in obese children with those exhibiting normal body mass. Materials and Methods In the present retrospective cohort study, 108 children, 12 years of age, were randomly assigned to the two groups with equal gender distribution, selected from the schools in Yazd, Iran: obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥25) and nonobese (BMI <25). After obtaining informed consent forms from their parents, each participant's demographic data and BMI were recorded, and periodontal indices were determined including plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket depth (PD), and clinical attachment loss (CAL). Then, a questionnaire on dietary and oral hygiene habits was completed by the participants. The data were collected and analyzed with a Chi-square test and t-test. Results The results showed statistically significantly higher mean PI, BOP, and PD in obese participants than nonobese participants (P < 0.05), with no statistically significant difference in CAL between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions The periodontal indices of PI, BOP, and PD in obese children were significantly higher than in children with a normal weight. However, there was no statistically significant difference in CAL between the two groups.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease characterized by destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth. Severe periodontitis is highly prevalent-affecting 10%-15% of adults-and carries several negative comorbidities, thus reducing quality of life. Although a clear relationship exists between severity of obesity and incidence of periodontal disease, the biologic mechanisms that support this link are incompletely understood. In this conceptual appraisal, a new "two-hit" model is presented to explain obesity-exacerbated periodontal bone loss. This proposed model recognizes a previously unappreciated aspect of myeloid-derived suppressor cell population expansion, differentiation, and activity that can participate directly in periodontal bone loss, providing new mechanistic and translational perspectives.

Periodontal therapy on the oral health-related quality of life of obese and non-obese individuals. Odontology 2021; 109:956-964. [PMID: 34023952 DOI: 10.1007/s10266-021-00617-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Oral diseases such as periodontitis can have a more negative influence on the quality of life of obese than in normal-weight patients. The objective of the present study was to assess the impact of one-stage full-mouth disinfection (OSFMD) therapy on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQL) of obese and non-obese individuals with periodontitis. Fifty-five obese and thirty-nine non-obese patients were evaluated. The questionnaires oral impacts on daily performance (OIDP) and oral health and quality of life (OHQoL) were given to all patients at baseline and 6 months after periodontal treatment by the OSFMD protocol. For statistical analysis, Chi-square, the two-factor repeated-measures ANOVA, and correlation tests were used. At baseline, mean global OHQoL and OIDP scores were similar for both groups (p > 0.05). At 6 months, OSFMD resulted in OHQoL and OIDP global scores improvements in both groups (p < 0.05), with no significant difference between groups. The most impaired activity at baseline was eating and cleaning teeth for both groups. Periodontal parameters were associated with worse values in the OHQoL and OIDP questionnaires only in obese patients. In conclusion, OSFMD yielded similar improvements in overall OHRQL in both obese and non-obese individuals. Periodontal parameters were associated with a worse quality of life in obese patients. Periodontal treatment can be an important component to improve the OHRQL of obese individuals, and clinicians should expect similar results as those obtained with non-obese patients.

Association between clinical measures of gingival inflammation and obesity in adults: systematic review and meta-analyses. Clin Oral Investig 2021; 25:4281-4298. [PMID: 33904994 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-021-03961-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 04/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to systematically review the literature about the association between clinical measures of gingival inflammation and obesity in adults. MATERIAL AND METHODS Searches for studies were performed in five databases (Medline-PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase) to compile studies of any design that evaluated the association between clinical measures of gingival inflammation and obesity in adults. Selection of studies, data extraction and risk of bias analysis were performed independently by two reviewers, and a third researcher was involved to resolve disagreements. Meta-analyses were performed for measures of gingival inflammation as compared to body mass index (BMI). Independent analyses were performed for studies involving periodontitis, gingivitis, and population-based/studies that did not provide a periodontal diagnosis. Standard mean deviation (SMD) and its 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were estimated. RESULTS Ninety studies were included (cross-sectional/clinical trials [n=82], case-control [n=3], cohorts [n=5]). Most of the studies demonstrated no significant difference in the measures of gingival inflammation regardless of the comparison performed. However, meta-analysis showed that among individuals with periodontitis, significantly higher levels of gingival inflammation are observed in those with obesity (n of individuals=240) when compared to those who were not obese (n of individuals=574) (SMD:0.26; 95%CI:0.07-0.44). When considering population-based/those studies that did not provide periodontal diagnosis, significantly higher measures of gingival inflammation were observed in the groups with higher BMI. CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of the present study, it was concluded that higher measures of gingival inflammation may be expected for those with higher BMI. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Clinicians must be aware that higher measures of gingival inflammation may be expected for individuals with higher BMI. However, there is a necessity for further longitudinal studies regarding the association between obesity and gingival inflammation.

Abstract
Objective. To evaluate if nutritional status is associated with caries and gingivitis in Brazilian schoolchildren. Material and methods. Children of both genders, age ranging from 8 to 11 years old, were included in this study. Caries was diagnosed using ICDAS (International System for Detection and Assessment of Carious Lesions) and gingivitis was diagnosed using the Community Periodontal Index. The nutritional status of each child was defined by BMI Z-score calculation. Data on oral health behavior and dietary habit were collected through parent's questionnaires. Parametric analyzes were performed to compare the groups. The established alpha was 5%. Results. The sample consisted of 353 schoolchildren: 16 underweight children, 247 eutrophic children, 64 overweight children, and 26 were obese children. Overweight, Obese and Overweight + Obese children presented less cavitated caries lesion than Eutrophic children (P < .05). Gingivitis was not associated with nutritional status (P > .05). Conclusion. Caries was associated with overweight and obesity in Brazilian schoolchildren.

Abstract
Background The aim of the present study was to assess and quantify cluster of differentiation 163 (CD163) protein levels and CD163 messenger RNA (mRNA) gene expression in subgingival plaque samples of generalized chronic periodontitis subjects with and without type II diabetes mellitus (DM). Materials and methods Eighty chronic periodontitis subjects were selected and divided into 40 systemically healthy, generalized chronic periodontitis subjects (Group I) and 40 generalized chronic periodontitis subjects diagnosed with type II diabetes mellitus (Group II). Age, body mass index (BMI), income, plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded. CD163 protein and gene expressions were quantified and compared between the groups. Results The mean age, BMI, income, PI, BOP %, and CD163 protein and gene expression were higher in Group II (p< 0.05) as compared to Group I. In Group I, CD163 protein levels showed a negative correlation with respect to BMI and PI, and this was statistically significant. In Group II, all the periodontal parameters showed a positive correlation with CD163 protein levels. Overall, PI and BOP % were significantly correlated with CD163 protein levels. Both CD163 protein and gene expression showed a negative correlation with each other (p= 0.001). Conclusion The elevated protein levels of CD163 in the subgingival plaque samples of generalized chronic periodontitis individuals with type II diabetes mellitus signify the involvement of CD163 in the pathogenesis of both periodontitis and diabetes mellitus. CD163 can play a challenging role as a diagnostic, as well as a prognostic biomarker, in both these inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Aim This study evaluated the relationship between missing posterior teeth and body mass index with regard to age and socioeconomic state in a sample of the suburban south Indian population. Materials and Methods The 500 individuals of both males and females aged 40 years and older with missing posterior teeth and not rehabilitated with any prosthesis were gone through a clinical history, intraoral examination, and anthropometric measurement to get information regarding age, sex, socioeconomic status, missing posterior teeth, and body mass index (BMI). Subjects were divided into five groups according to BMI (underweight > 18.5 kg/m2, normal weight 18.5-23 kg/m2, overweight 23-25 kg/m2, obese without surgery 25-32.5 kg/m2, obese with surgery < 32.5 kg/m2). Multivariate logistic regression was used to adjust data according to age, sex, number of missing posterior teeth, and socioeconomic status. Results People with a higher number of tooth loss were more obese. Females with high tooth loss were found to be more obese than male. Low socioeconomic group obese female had significantly higher tooth loss than any other group. No significant relation between age and obesity was found with regard to tooth loss. Conclusion The BMI and tooth loss are interrelated. Management of obesity and tooth loss can help to maintain the overall health status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of non-surgical periodontal therapy on serum inflammatory factors and metabolism levels in obese rats with experimental periodontitis. METHODS Sixteen obese rats with experimental periodontitis were randomly divided into treatment group and control group with non-surgical periodontal therapy and no treatment, respectively. Oral glucose tolerance test was performed before treatment and 2 weeks after the treatment. All the rats were sacrificed 2 weeks after treatment and the orbital vein blood was taken to detect fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, and serum level of C-reactive protein (CRP). Results Two weeks after periodontal treatment, fasting blood glucose (t=2.445, P=0.034) and beta cell function index (t=-2.543, P=0.027) were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group. Compared with those in the control group, CRP level (t=2.388, P=0.028) and the area under the curve in the oral glucose tolerance test (t=12.053, P=0.000) decreased significantly in the treatment group. CONCLUSION Non-surgical periodontal treatment can reduce serum CRP level and improve glucose metabolism in obese rats.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity and periodontitis are important chronic health problems. Obesity is associated with an increased prevalence of periodontitis. Whether obesity also affects the outcome of non-surgical periodontal therapy is to date still unclear. METHODS A systematic review of studies referenced in SCOPUS, MEDLINE, PubMed, Cochrane, CINAHL, Biosis and Web of Science was performed. Titles, abstracts and finally full texts were scrutinized for possible inclusion by two independent investigators. Quality and heterogeneity of the studies were assessed and the study designs were examined. Probing pocket depth reduction was analyzed as primary surrogate parameter for therapeutic success after non-surgical periodontal therapy. RESULTS One-hundred-and-fifty-nine potentially qualifying studies were screened. Eight studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Three of eight studies failed to show an influence of obesity on pocket depth reduction after non-surgical therapy. The remaining five studies documented a clear negative effect on the outcome of non-surgical periodontal therapy. The finally included studies did not correspond to the highest level of quality (RCTs). Due to the heterogeneity of the data a meta-analysis was not possible. CONCLUSION The literature on the effect of obesity on the treatment outcome of non-surgical periodontal therapy remains controversial. The data, however, support that obesity is not only a factor associated with poorer periodontal health but might also result in inferior response to non-surgical treatment of periodontitis.

Front Microbiol 2016; 7:840.

Abstract
In oral health, the interdental spaces are a real ecological niche for which the body has few or no alternative defenses and where the traditional daily methods for control by disrupting biofilm are not adequate. The interdental spaces are the source of many hypotheses regarding their potential associations with and/or causes of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, degenerative disease, and depression. This PCR study is the first to describe the interdental microbiota in healthy adults aged 18–35 years-old with reference to the Socransky complexes. The complexes tended to reflect microbial succession events in developing dental biofilms. Early colonizers included members of the yellow, green, and purple complexes. The orange complex bacteria generally appear after the early colonizers and include many putative periodontal pathogens, such as Fusobacterium nucleatum. The red complex (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, and Treponema denticola) was considered the climax community and is on the list of putative periodontal pathogens. The 19 major periodontal pathogens tested were expressed at various levels. F. nucleatum was the most abundant species, and the least abundant were Actinomyces viscosus, P. gingivalis, and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. The genome counts for Eikenella corrodens, Campylobacter concisus, Campylobacter rectus, T. denticola, and Tannerella forsythensis increased significantly with subject age. The study highlights the observation that bacteria from the yellow complex (Streptococcus spp., S. mitis), the green complex (E. corrodens, Campylobacter gracilis, Capnocytophaga ochracea, Capnocytophaga sputigena, A. actinomycetemcomitans), the purple complex (Veillonella parvula, Actinomyces odontolyticus) and the blue complex (A. viscosus) are correlated. Concerning the orange complex, F. nucleatum is the most abundant species in interdental biofilm. The red complex, which is recognized as the most important pathogen in adult periodontal disease, represents 8.08% of the 19 bacteria analyzed. P. gingivalis was detected in 19% of healthy subjects and represents 0.02% of the interdental biofilm. T. forsythensis and T. denticola (0.02 and 0.04% of the interdental biofilm) were detected in 93 and 49% of healthy subjects, respectively. The effective presence of periodontal pathogens is a strong indicator of the need to develop new methods for disrupting interdental biofilm in daily oral hygiene.

Abstract
Objective Metabolic syndrome and dental erosion have been demonstrated to correlate with gastroesophageal acid reflux disease (GERD), while periodontitis has been reported to have a positive relationship with metabolic syndrome. However, no correlation between periodontitis and GERD has yet been reported. We therefore investigated the relationship between periodontitis and GERD. Methods The subjects consisted of 280 individuals who visited the Health Center for a detailed medical checkup examination. Each underwent upper endoscopy and periodontitis examinations, with the latter performed by measuring the concentrations of lactate dehydrogenase and hemoglobin in saliva. The subjects were divided into those with positive and negative periodontitis findings, and the prevalence rates of endoscopically proven reflux esophagitis, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia were compared. Results The number of subjects positive for periodontitis was 93, while 187 had negative findings. The prevalence of reflux esophagitis was not different between the positive and negative groups (8.6% vs. 8.0%). In addition, a multiple logistic regression analysis did not identify a positive relationship between the presence of periodontitis and reflux esophagitis. On the other hand, dyslipidemia and hypertension were more frequently observed in the subjects that were positive for periodontitis. Conclusion We did not find an association between periodontitis and reflux esophagitis in the present study. On the other hand, the presence of periodontitis was found to correlate with hypertension and dyslipidemia.
