“…Gingival inflammation is reversible and occurs mostly in childhood and adolescence (5,6) with the prevalence decreasing as adulthood is reached (1). Gingivitis is a risk factor for periodontitis (7,8), which in turn is associated with several systemic disorders of public health importance including coronary heart diseases (9), diabetes (10), atherosclerosis (11), lung cancer (12), pancreatic cancer (13), psoriasis (14) and male infertility (15).…”

“…The cohort was followed up in 1984, 1989 and 2000. A recently published paper has examined how oral hygiene and gingival health changed between the ages of 11-12 and 30-31 years (27). The aim of this second paper is to examine, on a cross-sectional basis, the inter-relationship between tobacco smoking, oral hygiene and gingival ⁄ periodontal health in early adulthood.…”

Smokers consistently demonstrated poorer oral hygiene than non-smokers. The effect of smoking in reducing gingival bleeding was already apparent at age 19-20 years despite the fact that, at this time, subjects might be assumed to have been exposed to a relatively small dose of tobacco over a short period of time. In the follow-up study conducted at the age of 30-31 years, the impact of smoking on the periodontal tissues was, as expected, more pronounced.

“…Such discrepancies may be because of oral hygiene habits among boys and girls. Earlier studies (65,66) have reported girls were considerate of their oral health and had a lower prevalence of gingivitis.…”

Background: Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease that includes primarily gingivitis and periodontitis, caused by bacterial infection of the supporting structures of the teeth. For years, much attention has been diverted to periodontal disease among the elderly, not enough attention is paid to adolescents. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the epidemic trend of periodontal disease in adolescents in mainland China.Methods: We conducted a comprehensive literature search through PubMed, Embase, CNKI, Chongqing VIP database, Chinese Wan Fang Database, and CBM. A series of subgroup analyses were done to explore the epidemiological characteristics of periodontal disease (gender, location, age, survey year, and geographical distribution) with the help of related software.Results: Thirty studies were included in this study. The data extraction and analysis were from three indexes, including bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket depth (PD), and dental calculus (DC). The detection rates of BOP(+), PD ≥4 mm and DC(+) were 48.8% (95% CI: 36.2-61.4%), 1.0% (0.0-2.0%), and 49.8% (41.0-58.6%), respectively. There were significant differences for the prevalence of gingivitis both in gender and area: the prevalence was higher in males than that in females, and risk ratio was 1.04 (95% CI, 1.01-1.06); a lower prevalence in urban areas compared with rural areas, and the risk ratio was 0.90 (95% CI, 0.85-0.96). Conclusions:This study shows a high prevalence of gingivitis among adolescents in China. Higher-quality epidemiological surveys with standard examination criteria are needed.
