Abstract

Objectives: Epidemiologic studies have indicated a correlation between dental and cardiovascular diseases, which remains insufficiently explored. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the prevalence of common dental diseases in younger seniors (65- to 74-year-olds) with and without cardiovascular diseases.

Method and materials: Participants with available self-reported data on cardiovascular diseases were selected from the cohort of the population-representative 6th German Oral Health Study (DMS • 6), in which caries, periodontitis, and tooth loss were recorded in a standardized manner. The prevalence of oral diseases was compared between participants with and without cardiovascular diseases.

Results: Compared with participants without cardiovascular diseases, those with cardiovascular diseases had an average of 2.1 fewer teeth, were more frequently edentulous, and were more likely to have advanced periodontal disease (stage IV). In contrast, participants without cardiovascular disease had more fillings (mean + 1.7 teeth) than those with cardiovascular disease.

Conclusion: The main cause of increased tooth loss - caries or periodontal disease - could not be clarified from the available data. In this study, the prevalence of tooth loss with oral-function limitation was higher in younger seniors with cardiovascular disease.

目的：流行病学研究表明，牙科疾病与心血管疾病之间存在相关性，但对这一问题的探讨仍不够充分。因此，本研究旨在比较患有和未患有心血管疾病的年轻老年人（65 至 74 岁）的常见牙科疾病患病率：从具有人口代表性的第六次德国口腔健康研究（DMS - 6）的队列中选取了有心血管疾病自我报告数据的参与者，该研究以标准化的方式记录了龋齿、牙周炎和牙齿脱落情况。研究人员对患有和未患有心血管疾病的参与者的口腔疾病患病率进行了比较：结果：与没有心血管疾病的参与者相比，患有心血管疾病的参与者的牙齿数量平均减少了 2.1 颗，无牙齿的情况更为常见，而且更有可能患有晚期牙周病（IV 期）。相比之下，没有心血管疾病的人比有心血管疾病的人有更多的补牙（平均+1.7颗牙齿）：从现有数据中无法明确牙齿脱落增加的主要原因是龋齿还是牙周病。在这项研究中，患有心血管疾病的年轻老年人的牙齿缺失率较高，且口腔功能受限。

期刊介绍： QI has a new contemporary design but continues its time-honored tradition of serving the needs of the general practitioner with clinically relevant articles that are scientifically based. Dr Eli Eliav and his editorial board are dedicated to practitioners worldwide through the presentation of high-level research, useful clinical procedures, and educational short case reports and clinical notes. Rigorous but timely manuscript review is the first order of business in their quest to publish a high-quality selection of articles in the multiple specialties and disciplines that encompass dentistry.
