JDSMStudy Objectives: To evaluate caries, gingival and periodontal status, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in children with high risk of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in comparison to those with low risk of SDB. Methods:This cross-sectional study recruited consecutive children between the ages of 8 to 17 years from a university-based pediatric dental clinic. Caregivers completed the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) to stratify risk of SDB. Children and their caregivers completed the Child Oral Health Impact Profile (COHIP) to measure OHRQoL. A dental examination blinded to the results of the PSQ and COHIP was conducted. Group characteristics were compared between those with high risk (SDB+) and low risk for SDB (SDB−). Results:One hundred twenty-three children were enrolled (11.5 ± 2.7 years, female = 48%). Forty-nine percent were classified as SDB+. COHIP scores were higher among the SDB+ group (24.5 versus 11.6, P < .001 as reported by caregivers, and 25.9 versus 10.3, P < .001 as reported by children). The incidence of dental caries present on examination was higher (60% versus 20%, P < .001) in the SDB+ group. In addition, the indices of periodontal diseases were higher among the SDB+ group when compared to the SDB− group (periodontal pocket depth was 2.0 ± 1.0 versus 0.0 ± 0.7, P < .0001, and bleeding on probing was 90% versus 20%, P < .001).Conclusions: This study suggests that caregiver reports of SDB symptoms in those seeking pediatric dental care are common. In addition, children in the SDB+ group had poorer OHRQoL, with increased incidence of caries lesion and periodontal disorders when compared to the SDB− group.

“…Lee et al 24) reported that poor . Sleep deprivation leads to extreme fatigue, stress, and poor oral health behavior, leading to poor oral hygiene, which can cause periodontitis 25) . Hong 26) concluded that the risk of periodontitis is 1.37 times higher in the group with less than six hours of sleep per day, whereas 27) reported that those who slept less than seven hours per day have a higher risk of periodontitis, compared with those who slept seven hours or more per day.…”

Background: Sleep disorder is a precursor to depression, which is one of the psychological factors associated with periodontal disease that, in turn, affects general and periodontal health. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between sleep duration, depression, and periodontitis in older people aged over 65 years. Methods: A total of 2,002 older adults aged 65 years or older were included in the study. Their general and health aspects, including smoking, drinking, diabetes, hypertension, and depression, were investigated. Periodontitis was examined using the Community Periodontal Index (CPI). Data were analyzed through a complex sampling design method. Frequency and crossover analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between depression and periodontitis. To investigate the effect of depression on periodontitis, a logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: Regarding depression and participants' general characteristics, statistically significant differences were found in sex, economic activity, smoking habit, and CPI (p＜0.05). In the presence of depression, the odds ratio for periodontitis was 1.84, and the adjusted odds ratio for age, sex, economic activity, residence type, household income, education level, smoking habit, drinking, hypertension, and diabetes was 1.72, representing a significant difference (p＜0.05). Conclusion: This study examined the relationship between depression and periodontitis in older persons and confirmed a significant correlation. As the population of older adults increases, we should pay attention to their mental and oral health as well as systemic diseases. Various programs for the health promotion of older persons need to be implemented to improve the quality of life of older people.

“…For masticatory function, the variable was dichotomized into two categories: sufficient (≥5 units) vs. insufficient (<5 units) masticatory efficiency depending on the number of functional (occluding) premolar and molar units. The threshold of 5 masticatory units was chosen based on the WHO recommendations indicating that the retention of a minimum of 20 teeth is sufficient for adequate masticatory efficiency and ability [23].…”

“…As known, mouth breathing is highly common in patients with OSA, both adults and children, and it may adversely affect oral health [27][28][29][30]. Chronic mouth breathing per se may lead to dryness of the oral cavity and the pharynx, impair the self-cleaning ability of the oral cavity during sleep, and facilitate oral bacterial colonization [23,28]. In this perspective, mouth breathing associated with OSA may be the mediating factor that predisposes to the development of gingivitis and periodontitis [8].…”
