Correlation between Prevotella intermedia and intraoral metal alloys.
Objective: We investigated the potential association between intraoral metal alloys and the presence of Prevotella intermedia in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: A case-control study was conducted using bacteriological tests. The RA group included 80 patients, of whom 40 tested positive for Prevotella intermedia and 40 tested negative. The control group consisted of 81 subjects without RA, with 39 testing positive for Prevotella intermedia and 42 testing negative.
Results: Univariate analysis identified the presence of intraoral metal alloys (lingual fixed retainers or metal-ceramic crowns), male sex, and gingival inflammation as significant predictors of Prevotella Intermedia presence (P < 0.05). In multivariate analysis, intraoral metal alloys demonstrated the strongest association, with an odds ratio = 4.21 (P < 0.001). However, no significant difference in Prevotella intermedia positivity was observed between the RA and control groups.
Conclusions: These findings suggest that intraoral metal alloys are associated with an increased prevalence of Prevotella intermedia in subgingival pockets among adults, independent of RA status.
期刊介绍:
The Korean Journal of Orthodontics (KJO) is an international, open access, peer reviewed journal published in January, March, May, July, September, and November each year. It was first launched in 1970 and, as the official scientific publication of Korean Association of Orthodontists, KJO aims to publish high quality clinical and scientific original research papers in all areas related to orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics. Specifically, its interest focuses on evidence-based investigations of contemporary diagnostic procedures and treatment techniques, expanding to significant clinical reports of diverse treatment approaches.
The scope of KJO covers all areas of orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics including successful diagnostic procedures and treatment planning, growth and development of the face and its clinical implications, appliance designs, biomechanics, TMJ disorders and adult treatment. Specifically, its latest interest focuses on skeletal anchorage devices, orthodontic appliance and biomaterials, 3 dimensional imaging techniques utilized for dentofacial diagnosis and treatment planning, and orthognathic surgery to correct skeletal disharmony in association of orthodontic treatment.
