Abstract

Objectives: Periodontitis is one of the most common chronic inflammatory diseases. It causes changes in the biting abilities of individuals. However, periodontal treatment has positive effects on masticatory function. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of periodontitis and periodontal treatment on masticatory abilities by measuring masseter and temporal muscle thicknesses with ultrasonography before and after periodontal treatment in chronic periodontitis patients.

Methods: The patients included in the study were determined by clinical and radiological examination. The thickness of the masseter and temporal muscles of the patients were measured by ultrasonography. Periodontal measurements and treatments of the patients were completed by a single physician. IBM SPSS 20.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) statistical program was used for statistical analysis.

Results: A statistically significant difference was found between the values of periodontal measurements before and after treatment (p<0.05). In the ultrasonography measurements of the thickness of masseter and anterior temporal muscles, a statistically significant increase was observed in both rest and contraction values at all time intervals (p<0.05). Muscle thicknesses of male patients were higher than female patients.

Conclusions: Periodontitis negatively affects the masticatory performance of individuals. Chronic periodontitis patients should be referred for periodontal treatment without wasting time.

通过超声波检查评估慢性牙周病患者的咀嚼肌厚度。

目的：牙周炎是最常见的慢性炎症性疾病之一。它会导致个人咬合能力的改变。然而，牙周治疗对咀嚼功能有积极影响。本研究旨在通过对慢性牙周炎患者牙周治疗前后的咀嚼肌和颞肌厚度进行超声波测量，确定牙周炎和牙周治疗对咀嚼能力的影响：研究对象通过临床和放射学检查确定。方法：通过临床和放射检查确定研究对象，并通过超声波检查测量患者的咀嚼肌和颞肌厚度。患者的牙周测量和治疗由一名医生完成。统计分析使用了 IBM SPSS 20.0（IBM 公司，纽约州阿蒙克市）统计程序：结果：治疗前后的牙周测量值差异有统计学意义（p 结论：牙周炎对咀嚼功能有负面影响：牙周炎对个人的咀嚼功能有负面影响。慢性牙周炎患者应及时接受牙周治疗。
