Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the prevalence of periodontal disease and alveolar bone loss in overweight/obese Brazilian adolescents.
Methods: Participants included 12- to 18-year-old adolescents who were allocated into two groups: (1) normal weight; or (2) overweight/obese. Body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) were evaluated to classify overweight/obesity. Clinical measurements included the visible plaque index (VPI) and community periodontal index (CPI). Alveolar bone loss (ABL) was also evaluated by bitewing radiographs.
Results: There were 109 subjects. There were no significant differences between the groups for VPI and CPI code two (P >0.05). CPI code zero was more prevalent in normal weight subjects than in overweight/obese subjects (P <0.05). CPI codes one and three were significantly more frequent in the overweight/obese group (P <0.05). The normal weight subjects revealed a higher percentage of sites with no ABL (P <0.05), while the overweight/obese group had a higher prevalence of incipient ABL with the number of sites greater than one and less than three (P <0.05).
Conclusion: Overweight/obesity may affect the progression of early periodontitis in the presence of poor biofilm control in adolescents, as this group presents more bleeding on probing and pathological periodontal pockets greater than four mm as well as a higher prevalence of sites with incipient alveolar bone loss.

超重/肥胖巴西青少年牙周病和牙槽骨丢失的患病率

目的:评估超重/肥胖巴西青少年牙周病和牙槽骨丢失的患病率。方法:参与者包括12- 18岁的青少年，他们被分为两组:(1)体重正常;或(2)超重/肥胖。评估体重指数(BMI)和腰围(WC)对超重/肥胖进行分类。临床指标包括可见菌斑指数(VPI)和社区牙周指数(CPI)。牙槽骨丢失(ABL)也通过咬翼x线片评估。结果:共109例。VPI和CPI代码2组间差异无统计学意义(P >0.05)。CPI代码0在正常体重的受试者中比在超重/肥胖的受试者中更普遍。结论:超重/肥胖可能会影响青少年在生物膜控制不良的情况下早期牙周炎的进展，因为这一组在探诊和病理性牙周袋大于4毫米时出现更多出血，并且早期牙槽骨丢失的发生率更高。

期刊介绍： Acquired after the merger between the American Society of Dentistry for Children and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry in 2002, the Journal of Dentistry for Children (JDC) is an internationally renowned journal whose publishing dates back to 1934. Published three times a year, JDC promotes the practice, education and research specifically related to the specialty of pediatric dentistry. It covers a wide range of topics related to the clinical care of children, from clinical techniques of daily importance to the practitioner, to studies on child behavior and growth and development. JDC also provides information on the physical, psychological and emotional conditions of children as they relate to and affect their dental health.
