Obezitenin tükürük PH'sı, tamponlama kapasitesi ve diş çürüğü insidansı'na etkisi+

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı obez ve morbid obez hastaların tükürük pHsı tamponlama kapasitesi ve DMF-T indeks değerlerini sağlıklı bireylerle karşılaştırmaktır. Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmaya vücut kütle indeksi (VKİ) (Body Mass Index) ≥30 olan ve yaş ortalaması 45.6 olan 34 obez bayan ile, VKİsı 19-25 olan ve yaş ortalaması 41 olan 12 sağlıklı bayan gönüllü olarak katıldı. Obez gruptaki bireyler ayrıca 15 birey obez (VKİ

Effects of obesity on salivary PH, buffering capacity and dental caries incidence

Background: The salivary pH, buffering capacity and DMF-T index of obese and morbide obese patients were compared with those of healthy controls. Methods: Test group of this study was consisted of thirty four volunteers (mean age 45.60) obese women patients with Body Mass Index (BMI)≥30 and control group was consisted of twelve healthy volunteers (mean age of 41) nonobese women patients with BMI between 19-25. Obese patients were divided in two subgroup; fifteen patients as obese group (BMI<39.9) and nineteen patients (BMI ≥40) as morbide obese group. Un-stimulated mixed saliva was collected for 5 or 10 minutes from the subjects. Salivary pH and buffering capacity were measured (modified Ericsson method) using a pH/ION-Meter. The dental examinations were performed according to WHO criteria and DMF-T index was calculated. The data were statistically analyzed. Results: The obese patients mean salivary pH was 6.98±0.4, buffering capacity was 3.91±0.8 and DMF-T index was 12.73±7.65, in morbide groups mean salivary pH was 6.98±0.25, buffering capacity was 4.14± 1.12 and DMF-T index was 11±8.39 found. The control groups mean salivary pH was 6.95 ± 0.43, buffering capacity was 3.48±0.5 and DMF-T index was 9.25± 6.77. There were no differences in pH, buffering capacity and DMF-T index between groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: As a result of this study, it was suggested that obesity could not influence the salivary pH, buffering capacity and caries indices.
