Association between body mass index and waist circumference with periodontal health state

Aim: Obesity is one of the important public health concerns in both developed and developing countries, and may associate withincreased risk of periodontitis. Present study aims to determine whether there is an association between periodontal disease andobesity in Turkish population.Material and Methods: This study is consisted of 950 participants included; 551 women and 399 men aged 18 to75 years. In allpatients; probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP) and plaque index (PI) were recorded andradiographic examination was performed. Obesity and overweight were assessed by body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference(WC) using World Health Organization criteria. The covariates were categorized into three groups; 1- Socio-demographic variables,2- Oral health behaviors, 3- General health status.Results: When the periodontal health status evaluations of 950 patients in our study were examined; 131 patients were healthy, 592patients were diagnosed as gingivitis, and 227 patients were diagnosed as periodontitis. High waist circumference and body massindex were correlated with periodontal disease after adjusting co-varieties (p
