Relationships between periodontitis, tooth loss, and metabolic syndrome indicators
This study examines the impact of poor oral health on metabolic syndrome (MetS). It finds that both periodontitis and tooth loss are associated with a higher number of MetS indicators. These associations are particularly stronger in individuals with more severe metabolic alterations. Additionally, individuals with both periodontitis and tooth loss are more likely to exhibit metabolic dysfunctions, including hypertension, hyperglycemia, obesity, and dyslipidemia. This highlights the critical need for integrated care addressing both periodontal and metabolic health in clinical practice.
