“…In a case-control study, prolonged breastfeeding increased some of the periodontal indices, including pocket depth and BOP, but in the present study, there was no significant difference between periodontitis and the duration of breastfeeding [ 45 ]. Studies have also examined the exogenous hormonal changes [ 46 – 48 ].…”

Introduction. While the short-term effects of hormonal events on gingival inflammation have been well described, their long-term effects on the periodontium have received less attention. Our investigation was aimed at evaluating the correlation between hormonal fluctuations and periodontal status in postmenopausal women from the profile of the Rafsanjan Cohort Study. Material and Methods. We used the data obtained from the profile of the Rafsanjan Cohort Study (RCS) as a part of the prospective epidemiological research studies in Iran (PERSIAN). The RCS includes 10,000 participants aged 35–70 years old. Among this population, the periodontal status data of 4143 women were available. Of these 4,143, the postmenopausal women were included in the study, and those who had a history of gingival treatment during the past 6 months were excluded from the study. Finally, 928 postmenopausal women were included in the present study. Periodontal status was assessed by measuring the clinical attachment loss, pocket depth, and bleeding on probing (BOP). Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were applied using three different models. Results. The results showed that 53.2% of postmenopausal women had periodontitis. There were significant differences between the participants with and without periodontitis in brushing frequency and educational status P < 0.05 . After adjusting for all potential confounders, no correlation was found between hormonal fluctuations and periodontal status. Conclusion. There was no correlation between hormonal fluctuations and periodontal status.

“…The results revealed that the MDA concentration was significantly higher (P a1,2 =0.001) among pregnant gingivitis patients compared with healthy control group in both serum (3.55±0.67 nmol/ml vs. 1.31±0.15 nmol/ml) and saliva (1.52±0.13 nmol/ml vs. 0.33±0.12 nmol/ml). Thus, the presence of increased MDA levels indicated higher levels of OS, as a result of the increased OS during pregnancy [7]. The MDA concentration in non-pregnant gingivitis patients was also significantly higher (P b1,2 =0.001) compared with healthy controls in both serum (3.39±0.16 nmol/ml) and saliva (0.80±0.09 nmol/ml).…”

“…Pregnant and breast-feeding women are at greater risk for oral and dental problems. The occurrence of some conditions such as hormonal disturbances, changes in oral cavity pH, and changes in dietary habits increased the incidence of dental caries and periodontal problems, including: gingivitis and periodontitis, [7]. During pregnancy, the gums swell and bleed more easily in most women due to the increased inflammatory response to dental plaque, and gingivitis may peak during the third trimester.…”

“…Likewise, there was a significant different (P c1 =0.04) in serum MDA in pregnant gingivitis patients group (3.55±0.67 nmol/ml) compared with non-pregnant gingivitis patients group (3.39±0.16 nmol/ml). It is hypothesized that changes in the OS biomarkers in non-pregnant gingivitis patients are related to the inflammatory processes in gingivitis and directly with a bacterial load, meaning that any elevation in MDA levels of peroxide products will be correlated with several acute and chronic pathophysiological conditions [7]. The results indicated the validity of the MDA assay as a reliable tool in detecting OS in pathologies of various diseases [28].…”

“…In fact, saliva is the primary bodyʼs line of defenses against reactive oxygen species (ROS), because certain proteins and/or lipid antioxidants are produced in the salivary glands and transferred to the lingual cavity through the blood [6]. A significant positive correlation has been observed between hormones disturbance and gingivitis condition that occur with pregnancy, as these hormonal changes increase tooth sensitivity, collagen synthesis rate, and connective tissue changes and gingiva can develop into the periodontal disease during this period [7]. Nevertheless, it can be stated that current observational researches generally verify a vigorous link between oral health problems and poor pregnancy consequences, whereas there is still some controversy [5].…”

Background: Gingivitis is an inflammation limited to marginal gingival tissues, which can be referred to as the mildest form of periodontal diseases, initial signs of inflammation which include: redness, bleeding, swelling, exudation, and to a lesser extent pain, which indicate the presence of gingivitis. Current research was proposed to detect the correlation between pregnancy status and oxidative stress (OS) levels among gingivitis pregnant women and to elucidate the role of pregnancy status in the pathogenicity of gingivitis. Methods: The current study was conducted in the Dental Center at Thi-Qar province (Iraq), and it included three study groups: 35 pregnant women with gingivitis, 35 non-pregnant women with gingivitis, and 30 non-pregnant women without gingivitis (the healthy control), with an age balance between the three study groups. Serological and salivary levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), total anti-oxidant capacity (TAC), protein carbonyl (Pc), protein, nitric oxide (NO), and ceruloplasmin (Crp) were biochemically determined. Results:The results of the tests showed that the concentrations of MDA, Pc, the total proteins (TP), NO, and Crp were significantly higher among pregnant and non-pregnant women with gingivitis compared with healthy controls in both serum and saliva, whereas the inverse findings were reported for TCA biomarker. The same results profiles were reported in comparison between pregnant women with gingivitis and non-pregnant women with gingivitis for serum biomarkers. For saliva biomarkers, the results revealed significant elevated levels of MDA, Pc, and NO among pregnant gingivitis women in comparison with non-pregnant gingivitis, whereas the other biomarkers revealed non-significant differences. Conclusions: The pregnancy status had an effect on the OS level which lead to a higher level of OS in both serum and saliva and the correlation between the pregnancy status and serum and/or saliva OS levels was positive which indicated the possible utility of its present lead to gingivitis development.
