“…Aström et al (17) also reported that a low number of teeth can be used to predict hip fractures in elderly males and females. The contradictory findings between these studies (Kribbs (16) and Aström et al (17)) could be due to the fact that in all these studies, confounding variables such as smoking were not adjusted. However, the use of tooth loss as a surrogate for periodontal disease extent has several limitations.…”

Objectives: Both periodontitis and osteoporosis represent major health problems especially in elderly women. The relationship between the two diseases and oral bone loss is important having significant public health impact in the prevention of morbidity and mortality related to these disorders. The present study was aimed to investigate the possible association between osteoporosis and periodontal disease among postmenopausal women residing in Goa, India. Study design: A complete periodontal examination (all teeth except third molar) including plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), clinical attachment loss (CAL) measurement was performed on 80 dentate Goan postmenopausal women (age ≥ 50 yrs) with generalized chronic periodontitis. Mean alveolar bone loss (ABL) was measured from full mouth intraoral periapical radiographs, by recording the distance from cementoenamel junction (CEJ) and the most coronal portion of alveolar crest at mesial and distal aspect of all teeth except canines and third molars. Systemic bone loss was determined from hand-wrist radiograph of the patient through Digital X-Ray Radiogrammetry. Statistical analysis was done to assess the relationships between periodontal variables and bone mineral density (BMD) after adjusting for age, years since menopause, body mass index (BMI), smoking, number of remaining teeth, PI and GI. Results: Age of the patient, years since menopause and BMI showed significant correlation with BMD. CAL and ABL showed mildly negative and statistically nonsignificant correlation with the BMD. Of all the variables studied, only smoking and BMI were strong predictors of BMD. Conclusion: Skeletal BMD is related to interproximal ABL and CAL, though not to a statistically significant level; implicating postmenopausal osteopenia as a risk indicator for periodontal disease.

“…It has been found that women with severe osteoporosis are three times more likely to be edentulous than healthy, age matched controls [15]. Excessive bone loss due to osteoporosis may cause denture making and retention compromised.…”

“…Therefore, it was suggested that a systemic imbalance in bone resorption and deposition might be manifested earlier in the alveolar process than in other sites (1). Kribbs reported that postmenopausal women with osteoporosis had decreased mandibular bone IDR -Volume 1, Number 3, 2011 density, thinned cortex at the gonion, and more tooth loss than healthy postmenopausal women (61). The American Academy of Periodontology considers osteoporosis to be a risk factor for periodontal disease (62).…”

Periodontitis and gingivitis, a prevalent oral diseases, have been connected to several systemic health changes. The aim of this investigation was to review the effects of menopause on periodontal tissue. Epidemiologic studies have identified a number of risk factors and risk indicators for periodontal attachment loss, including demographic, socioeconomic, behavioural, genetic, and systemic factors. Menopause has also been associated with destructive periodontal disease in older women. The homeostasis of the periodontium involves complex multifactorial relationships. Oestrogen and progesterone are responsible for physiological changes in women at specific phases of their life. Menopause is associated with significant adverse changes in the orofacial complex.
