The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between periodontal disease and halitosis, and to develop a detail clinical protocol for assessing halitosis in animals. We measured the periodontal disease parameters, the degree of halitosis using organoleptic scale method and the concentration of volatile sulfur compounds(VSC) using portable sulfide monitor($Halimeter^{TM}$). In this study, VSC levels by $Halimeter^{TM}$ were found to be significantly associated with periodontal disease parameters(plaque index, calculus index)(P<0.05). We also found that conscious sedation did not affect the measurement of VSC levels.

During the past decade, the use of osseointegrated implants as a foundation for prosthetic replacement of missing teeth has become highly predictable and successful. SPT(Supportive Periodontal Therapy) identified as regular visits to the therapist for periodontal control and maintenance in a well-organized scheme, the number of appointments per year following a pre-designed subject-tooth/implant-site risk assessment method. Peri-implant disease was a frequent finding in subjects having natural healthy dentition and in subjects without periodontitis. Supportive periodontal program were found to be strongly related to implant survival. This study demonstrates that regular maintenance reduces the risk for peri-implant inflammation significantly as compared with irregular maintenance. This underlines the value of the SPT in enhancing the long-term outcomes of implant therapy, particularly in subjects affected by periodontitis, in order to control reinfection and limit biological complications. It is highly recommended to maintain implant patients under a strict supportive periodontal treatment protocol that might contribute to implant survival, and regular maintenance reduces the risk for periimplant inflammation significantly as compared with irregular maintenance. Ideally, patients may be informed on the beneficial effect of a regular patient-related post-therapy care before implant insertion.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between socioeconomic characteristics and prevalence of periodontal disease in a representative sample of Korean adults older than age 20. Methods: Data of 3,837 adults were collected by the six Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which was conducted in 2015. Socioeconomic, demographic, and oral health-related behavior data were collected as independent variables. We determined frequencies, percentage, and determining statistical significance using multiple regression analysis. Results: Prevalence of periodontal diseases showed statistically significant difference in accordance with sex, age, socioeconomic and demographical characteristics and oral health-related behavior. It was confirmed that the prevalence of periodontal diseases was increased in the lower educational level and income (OR, 1.478 and 1.520) after adjusting for conditions such as age, sex, recent dental check-ups, visiting dental clinic, tooth brushing frequency, use of self-care devices. Conclusions: The prevalence of periodontal disease was related with socioeconomic factors in Korean adults. Therefore, differentiated oral health service policies and dental health education among adults with lower education and income is required in order to reduce the prevalence of periodontal disease.

Purpose: This study investigated the validity of the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) as a predictor of periodontal disease (PD) over a 12-year period. Methods: Nationwide representative samples of 149,785 adults aged ${\geq}60$ years with PD (International Classification of Disease, 10th revision [ICD-10], K052-K056) were derived from the National Health Insurance Service-Elderly Cohort during 2002-2013. The degree of comorbidity was measured using the CCI (grade 0-6), including 17 diseases weighted on the basis of their association with mortality, and data were analyzed using multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression in order to investigate the associations of comorbid diseases (CDs) with PD. Results: The multivariate Cox regression analysis with adjustment for sociodemographic factors (sex, age, household income, insurance status, residence area, and health status) and CDs (acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, cerebral vascular accident, dementia, pulmonary disease, connective tissue disorders, peptic ulcer, liver disease, diabetes, diabetes complications, paraplegia, renal disease, cancer, metastatic cancer, severe liver disease, and human immunodeficiency virus [HIV]) showed that the CCI in elderly comorbid participants was significantly and positively correlated with the presence of PD (grade 1: hazard ratio [HR], 1.11; P<0.001; grade ${\geq}2$: HR, 1.12, P<0.001). Conclusions: We demonstrated that a higher CCI was a significant predictor of greater risk for PD in the South Korean elderly population.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the changes of the amount of P. gingivalis in saliva by professional preventive treatment of periodontal disease by dental hygienists. Methods: A total of 109 subjects participated in this study with informed consent. The control group (38 subjects) performed oral hygiene management individually. The periodontal treatment group (35 subjects) underwent root planning once every 3 weeks for a total of 4 times. The professional periodontal prevention group (36 subjects) underwent interdental cleaning and professional tooth brushing once every 3 weeks for a total of 4 times. Paired T test and analysis of variance were performed to compare the difference among the groups in the amount of P. gingivalis. Results: The copies of P. gingivalis in the professional periodontal prevention group decreased from 773.62±1,198.09 to 241.40±430.40 after treatment significantly. The control group decreased from 525.22±582.54 to 244.29±385.88 after treatment. The periodontal treatment group showed insignificant change of P. gingivalis. Conclusions: This study showed the professional periodontal prevention was more effective than periodontal treatment in decrease of P. gingivalis.

과학기술이 발전함에 따라 치주과학 영역에서도 1960년 이후 1980년대에 걸쳐 괄목할 만한 학문적 발전이 이루어졌으며 1990년에는 이에 의거한 치주질환의 예방 및 조절방법이 개발되어 사용되고 있다. 미래의 치주처치전략은 대상 지역의 특성과 보건환경에 따라 달라지므로 여기에서는 한국내 치주치료요구도와 치주치료 담당 일반치과의와 치주전문의의 수, 처치 내용에 대해 점검하고 현재의 치주처치 추세를 검토한 후 향후의 치료전략에 대해 언급하고자 한다. 1980년도 역학조사에 의하면 전체 인구의 82%가 치주질환(치은염+치주염), 35세 성인 인구의 30-40%가량이 치주염에 이환되어 있고 15세 청소년 인구중 0.1%가 유년형치주염에 이환되고 있다. 평균 수명이 증가하면서 65세 이상의 노년층도 전인구의 6%(성인 50%), 2000년도에는 6.9%(성인 52%)로 증가하고 치아보유율도 증가하므로 치주질환 치료요구도는 상승하리라 전망된다. 현재 한국내 치주전공 과정을 거친 치과의사는 약 780인 정도이다, 1996년 류의 연구에 의하면 이들도 대부분 일반치과의(개원의, 공증보건의 포함)로서 진료하고 있으며 의료보험하에서의 치주치료의 비중은 매우 낮다(4.66%). 포괄적 치주적 검사도 보편적이지 않고 대학병원급의 극히 일부에서만 이행되고 있는 실정이다. 향후의 치주질환이 처치전략에는 의료보험 운용시 치주적 배려와 간편한 치주검사과정을 통한 조기진단 및 조기치료, 진행기질환 및 난치성질환자의 치주전문으로의 의뢰가 포함될 것이며 각 환자에게는 개별적이며 임상시험 결과에 근거하는 evidence-based approach에 의한 치료선정 과정이 활용되리라 전망한다.

This systematic review aimed to investigate the effects of periodontal treatment on glycated hemoglobin A (HbA1c) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes who develop periodontal disease. The search of the MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library databases was completed on April 8, 2018. The study design was based on randomized clinical trials. Scaling and root planing was performed for the test group, whereas no periodontal treatment or simple oral training was performed for the control group. The main outcome variable was the change in HbA1c levels. We used the Review Manager statistical analysis software for the quantitative analysis of selected documents. Meta-analysis was performed using the inverse variance estimation method of the fixed-effect model to estimate the effects of periodontal treatment on HbA1c levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. A total of 1,011 documents were searched using search strategies, and 10 documents were included in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis of the selected literature showed that periodontal treatment significantly reduced the HbA1c levels in patients with type 2 diabetes who develop periodontal disease (mean difference, -0.34; 95% confidence interval, -0.43 to -0.26; p<0.001). This study aimed to investigate the effects of periodontal treatment on HbA1c levels, which can be used as a basis for the increasing management of diabetic complications. To improve the quality of life and reduce the burden of medical expenses for patients with diabetes, periodontal disease management through nonsurgical periodontal treatment, such as scaling and root planing, is necessary.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between periodontal disease, number of remaining teeth with high-sensitivity C-Reactive protein in Korean adults aged 40 and older. Methods: The study used the Sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VI-3), 2015. The study sample consisted of 3,883 aged 40 years or older who had completed the health survey and the health examination. Logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the odds ratios of high-sensitivity C-Reactive protein by periodontal disease and number of remaining teeth, adjusting for demographic characteristics, chronic diseases and oral health behavior-related variables. Results: When the demographic and chronic diseases were adjusted, the risk of high-sensitivity C-Reactive protein (hs-CRP) average 1.23 mg/L or higher was 1.36 times higher in patients with periodontal disease between the ages of 40 and 49, but it was not significant (OR=1.36; 95% CI=0.82-2.23). In addition, in the group of 0~23 remaining teeth aged 40~49 years, the risk of higher than the average 1.23 mg/L of high-sensitivity C-Reactive protein was 2.03 times higher (OR=2.03; 95% CI=1.10-3.74), and 1.49 times higher in 60~69 years (OR=1.07; 95% CI=1.04-2.76). Conclusions: This study found that periodontal disease and tooth loss in Korean adults aged 40 and older was significantly associated with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.

본 연구는 우리나라 19세 이상 성인의 흡연 상태와 치주질환 위험도와의 관련성을 분석하여 흡연이 치주질환에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 시도되었다. 연구결과에서 전체 대상자의 CPI 평균은 1.92이었고, 전체 대상자 6989명 중 CPI가 0-2인 그룹은 4707명(67.3%), 3-4인 그룹은 2282명(32.7%)이었다. 혼란변수를 보정하지 않았을 때 CPI가 3 이상인 그룹에서는 전혀 흡연을 하지 않는 그룹에 비해 과거 흡연을 한 그룹에서의 치주질환의 유병율에 대한 위험도는 1.78배(95% CI:1.56-2.02), 현재 흡연을 하고 있는 그룹에서는 1.75배(95% CI:1.55-1.82)로 증가하였다. 성별, 연령, 교육수준과 당뇨병 유무를 보정하고도 치주질환의 유병율에 대한 위험도는 전혀 피우지 않는 그룹보다 과거 흡연한 그룹에서 1.28배 (95% CI:1.08-1.53), 현재 흡연하는 그룹에서는 1.82배(95% CI:1.54-2.16)로 높았다. 이에 흡연과 치주질환이 연관성이 있는 것으로 나타나 적극적인 홍보를 통한 환자 스스로의 확고한 인식확립과 더불어 치과위생사는 진료실 내 체계적인 금연교육지도를 함으로써 치주 건강향상에 주력할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.
