“…However, this high prevalence might blur the potential of periodontal disease as a risk indicator because only a minority of patients were periodontally healthy or mildly diseased, respectively. To circumvent this condition, the current study also considered the PISA, similar to a previous study comparing patients with severe HF with an underlying ICM or DCM [31]. The PISA allows for the quantification of periodontal inflammation as a sum of inflamed periodontal pockets [32].…”

The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate whether there would be an association between periodontal disease parameters and positive bacterial findings at the driveline of patients with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Patients with an LVAD, who underwent a full oral and microbiological examination between 2016 and 2018, were included. During oral examination, periodontitis severity (stage and grade) and the periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA) were evaluated. A microbiological analysis was performed from swabs of the driveline, whereby different bacterial species were cultivated and analyzed. A total of 73 patients were included in the current study. The majority of participants (80.8%) had at least one positive bacterial finding during the study period. Most patients had a periodontitis stage of III-IV (80.9%). The determined PISA of the total group was 284.78 ± 352.29 mm². No associations were found between the periodontal disease parameters and the bacterial findings in general, the bacterial findings on the day of oral examination or the bacterial findings 12 months prior to/after the oral examination (p > 0.05). Periodontitis is not associated with cultivated microbiological findings at the driveline of patients with an LVAD and thus appears not to be a risk indicator for driveline colonization. Nevertheless, the high periodontal burden in LVAD patients underlines the need for their improved periodontal care.

“…The current epidemiology had defined that periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease have a moderate association and the mechanism of this link had not been clarified [13,14]. Severe heart failure (HF) can increase the burden of periodontal disease [15]. Some scholars found that common periodontal pathogens can be tested in atherosclerosis specimens [8,16].…”

Objective: Periodontitis is linked to increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease and it is significant to have a comprehensive cognition on the mutual influence for combined treatment. The present investigation aimed to promote oral health instruction to patients with periodontitis and/or cardiovascular disease and the medical staffs from the department of cardiology and stomatology. Materials and Methods: A total of 120 Cardiologist and dentists and 120 patients with cardiovascular diseases were randomly investigated in Hainan public hospitals. The subjects' cognition of the correlation between cardiovascular disease and periodontitis were examined through questionnaires. Results: The public represented by patients with cardiovascular disease in Haikou City has a lack of cognition of the two-way relationship between periodontitis and cardiovascular disease. 32.1% of medical staff and 72.2% of patients did not know that "periodontitis is a cause of cardiovascular disease", and 83.5% of patients did not know that "periodontitis is a complication of cardiovascular disease". 96.3% of dental medical staff and 87.9% of cardiovascular medical staff expressed the willingness to popularize the correlation between the two diseases to patients. Conclusion: The public in Hainan has insufficient understanding of the correlation between periodontitis and cardiovascular diseases. Clinicians should strengthen the education on the bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and cardiovascular disease.

“…Standardized questionnaires about oral health behavior and periodontal symptoms were used as established in various previous studies by this working group. [34][35][36] All athletes were asked to complete them self-administered on-site. Questions were asked about dentist visits (control or complaint-oriented check-ups, regular professional teeth cleaning), the importance of oral health, oral hygiene behavior (frequency of toothbrushing, interdental hygiene, use of fluoride gels), and received instructions about oral hygiene.…”

Purpose This retrospective cross‐sectional study aimed to evaluate oral health status (dental, periodontal, and functional) and oral health behavior in young German athletes including the comparison of competitive (CA) and amateur sports (AA). Methods Data of CA (German national teams, perspective, and youth squads) and AA aged between 18 and 30 years with an available oral examination in 2019 were included. Clinical examination: caries experience (DMF‐T), non‐carious wear (erosion, BEWE), partially erupted wisdom teeth, gingival inflammation (PBI), plaque index, periodontal screening (PSI), and temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) screening. Questionnaires: oral health behavior and periodontal symptoms. Results 88 CA (w = 51%, 20.6 ± 3.5 years) of endurance sports and 57 AA (w = 51%, 22.2 ± 2.1 years) were included. DMF‐T was comparable (CA: 2.7 ± 2.2, AA: 2.3 ± 2.2; p = 0.275) with more D‐T in CA (0.6 ± 1.0) than AA (0.3 ± 0.7; p = 0.046; caries prevalence: CA: 34%, AA: 19%; p = 0.06). Both groups had low severity of erosion (BEWE about 3.5). CA had more positive TMD screenings (43% vs. 25%; p = 0.014). In both groups, all athletes showed signs of gingival inflammation, but on average of low severity (PBI <1). More CA needed complex periodontal treatment than AA (maximum PSI = 3 in 40% vs. 12%; p < 0.001). Oral health behavior was comparable (daily tooth brushing; regular dental check‐ups in >70%). Conclusions Young German athletes (CA and AA) generally showed signs of gingival inflammation and needed to improve their oral health behavior. CA showed slightly increased oral findings (more D‐T, periodontal and TMD screening findings) than AA, but similar oral health behavior. This may imply an increased dental care need in competitive sports.
