“…Eczemas are an inflammatory reaction of the skin and are caused by either internal or external factors. Eczemas are classified on the basis of their pathogenesis and/or expression, the most common subtypes being atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and eczema nummulare (Lazzarini et al, 2018). Studies have shown that the prevalence of eczemas varies between 1.3% and 7.3% in the adult population (Augustin et al, 2011; Sinikumpu et al, 2014).…”

Aim To investigate whether the periodontal condition as measured by bleeding periodontal pockets is associated with atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and eczema nummulare. Materials and Methods The study population (n = 1871) was obtained from the 46‐year follow‐up study of the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 study (NFBC1966). The periodontal condition was measured by the number of sites with bleeding periodontal pockets that were ≥4 mm deep. The whole skin of the participants was clinically examined, and diagnoses of skin diseases were made according to the International Classification of Diseases. Prevalence rate ratios (PRR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were estimated using Poisson regression models with robust error variance. Results In this cohort, comprising 46‐year‐old participants of NFBC1966, the presence of 1–3 and ≥4 bleeding‐deepened periodontal pockets (≥4 mm deep) were associated with seborrheic dermatitis (PRR 1.9, 95% CI: 1.3–2.8 and PRR 2.2, 95% CI: 1.4–3.3, respectively) and with eczema nummulare (PRR 1.7, 95% CI: 0.9–3.1 and PRR 1.7, 95% CI: 0.9–3.3, respectively). For non‐smokers, the corresponding estimates were 1.7 for seborrheic dermatitis (95% CI: 1.1–2.6) and 1.8 (95% CI: 1.1–3.1) and 1.4 for eczema nummulare (95% CI: 0.7–2.9) and 1.2 (95% CI: 0.5–2.9), respectively. No association was found between bleeding‐deepened periodontal pockets and atopic dermatitis. Further adjustments for C‐reactive protein, diabetes, and inflammatory diseases did not essentially change the risk estimates among either the total population or the non‐smokers. Conclusion Bleeding periodontal pockets appeared to be associated with the presence of seborrheic dermatitis and eczema nummulare.
