Abstract
Background: Patients at high risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are characterized by intermittent transient hypoxias and upper respiratory tract collapse, with reactive oxygen production and oxidative imbalance which causes an inflammatory cascade. This can generate negative effects on the periodontium, causing severe tooth attachment loss. This study aimed to determine the association between periodontitis and the risk of OSA in adults who attend outpatient otolaryngology consultations.
Material and methods: A cross-sectional observational study was carried out with 118 patients seen in the otolaryngology service of the Hospital Victor Lazarte Echegaray-ESSALUD in Trujillo (Peru), between September and October 2023. The presence and severity of periodontitis were determined using the Page and Eke criteria, and the presence and severity of OSA risk were determined using the STOP-BANG questionnaire. The results were analyzed using Chi-square, Spearman correlation and logistic regression tests, considering a significance level of p<0.05.
Results: An association was found between periodontitis and risk of OSA (p=0.000), obtaining a positive relationship with rs=0.527. In addition, there was an association between periodontitis and DM2 (p=0.028) and bronchial asthma (0.017). No association was found between periodontitis and sex (0.503) or age (0.741).
Conclusions: There is an association between periodontitis and the risk of OSA in Peruvian adult patients who attended outpatient otolaryngology consultations. This association was also found according to age, sex, smoking, DM2 and asthma. In addition, an association was found between periodontitis and DM2 and asthma, but not with sex and age.
