Abstract

Purpose: Obesity is one of the increasingly negative factors affecting oral and dental health directly or indirectly in many developed and developing countries. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between obesity and dental problems in adults and to investigate the effect of obesity on oral and dental health. Materials and Methods: 200 patients over the age of 18 who applied with various dental complaints were examined clinically and radiologically. They were classified as 50 healthy females, 50 healthy males, 50 obese females, and 50 obese males according to the body mass index determined by the World Health Organization (healthy individual < 30.0 kg / m2 and 30.0 kg / m2 ≤ obesity individual). Sociodemographic characteristics, dental health status, and data of all patients were examined. Results: A statistically significant relationship was found between obesity and the number of tooth loss, the number of dental caries, educational status, and the frequency of applying to the dentist. Periodontitis was detected at a higher rate in the obesity group (58 %) compared to the control group, but the relationship between obesity and periodontal status was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Dental problems such as tooth loss, the number of dental caries, and periodontitis were higher in the obesity group, and this result showed that obesity threatens oral and dental health. To prevent these problems, there is a need for preventive strategies and increasing awareness of oral and dental health in obese patients.

Özet

Amaç: Obezite, birçok gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkede ağız ve diş sağlığını doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak etkileyen, giderek artan olumsuz faktörlerden biridir. Bu çalışmada yetişkinlerde obezite ile diş problemleri arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi ve obezitenin ağız ve diş sağlığı üzerindeki etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çeşitli diş şikayetleri ile başvuran 18 yaş üstü 200 hasta klinik ve radyolojik olarak muayene edildi. Dünya Sağlık Örgütü'nün belirlediği vücut kitle indeksine göre 50 sağlıklı kadın, 50 sağlıklı erkek, 50 obez kadın ve 50 obez erkek (sağlıklı birey < 30.0 kg / m2 ve 30.0 kg / m2 ≤ obez birey) olarak sınıflandırıldı. Tüm hastaların sosyodemografik özellikleri, dental sağlık durumları ve bulguları incelendi. Bulgular: Obezite ile diş kaybı sayısı, çürük diş sayısı, eğitim durumu ve diş hekimine başvuru sıklığı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark vardı. Obezite grubunda (%58) kontrol grubuna göre daha yüksek oranda periodontitis saptandı, buna karşın obezite ve periodontal durum arasındaki ilişki istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değildi. Sonuç: Diş kaybı sayısı, çürük sayısı, periodontitis gibi dental problemler obezite grubunda daha fazlaydı ve bu sonuç obezitenin ağız ve diş sağlığını tehdit ettiğini göstermiştir. Bu sorunları önlemek için obez hastalarda önleyici stratejilere ve ağız ve diş sağlığı konusunda farkındalıklarının arttırılmasına ihtiyaç vardır.
