Background: The aim of the study was to compare the periodontal status among pre menopausal and post menopausal women. Methods: A total population of 100 women of age group 45-55 years visiting the Department of Periodontology,VMSDC, Salem, were taken and divided into two groups-pre and postmenopausal. All patients were evaluated for plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD),and clinical attachment loss(CAL). Results: The prevalence of periodontitis was significantly greater among postmenopausal women than among premenopausal women. Statistical analysis of data were carried out using mean ± standard deviation (SD), p -value, t -test between two groups; premenopausal and postmenopausal. For PI, GI, PPD and CAL, we found a highly significant difference p< 0.001 between two groups. Conclusion: Postmenopausal women had a greater chance of having periodontitis than premenopausal women.

“…The goal of the treatment in periodontitis is to control bacteria as a local factor to minimise the systemic effects as a form of non-surgical treatment for periodontal disease. 6,7 Host modulation therapy (HMT) is part of a periodontal therapy that is used as an adjunct to conventional periodontal treatments such as scaling and root planning, and aims to reduce damage and regenerate the periodontal tissue by reducing the destructive aspects of the host response. 2,8 The HMT properties can be found naturally in lemuru fish oil.…”

Lemuru fish oil gel as host modulation therapy in periodontal ligaments induced with Porphyromonas gingivalis

et al. 2020

Background: Periodontitis affects approximately 20%–50% of the global population and is caused by gram-negative bacteria, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis). Host modulation therapy (HMT) is part of a periodontal therapy that is used as an adjunct to conventional periodontal treatment to reduce tissue damage. Lemuru fish oil containing EPA and DHA can reduce the formation of MMPs and will further increase the number of fibroblasts there by stimulating collagen formation. Purpose: To determine the effect of lemuru fish oil gel on the collagen density and width of the periodontal tissue induced by P. gingivalis and the correlation between these parameters. Methods: Thirty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups. Induction of P. gingivalis was carried out first, then lemuru fish oil gel was applied to the gingival sulcus for 14 days, according to collagen scores in histological preparations using Masson's trichrome (MT). The width of the periodontal ligament was measured with an image raster program in µm. The data were analysed using statistics to test hypotheses using SPSS version 24. Results: Significant differences in the results of the collagen density were observed between groups K- and K+ and groups K+ and P2. Meanwhile, no significant difference was observed between groups K- and P2, P3, P2 and P3 and K+ and P1. The mean values of the periodontal ligament widths were K- (299.61 ± 51.82µm), K+ (425.85 ± 61.54µm), P1 (346.93 ± 33.53µm), P2 (370.15 ± 49.42µm) and P3 (379.6 ± 49.26). Conclusion: Lemuru fish oil can affect the width of the ligament and the collagen density with an optimal concentration of 20%. The correlation between the collagen density and the periodontal ligament width was negative and not significant.

“…Systemic bone loss may be considered as a risk indicator for periodontal destruction and elevated rates of loss of bone mineral density after menopause are associated with greater risk of tooth loss. [ 35 36 ] Osteoporosis is observed to cause bone destruction in the alveolar processes of the mandible and maxilla, which provide a bony framework for anchorage of the tooth. Even though the association between systemic osteoporosis and oral health remains controversial, it has been suggested that tooth loss in menopausal and postmenopausal women might signal the onset of systemic osteoporosis.…”

Oral health is constantly shaped by the cross-talk between behavioral, biological, and social forces. Menopause is that time in a woman's life when menstrual cycles cease by reduced secretion of the ovarian hormones, such as, estrogen and progesterone. Diseases of the mouth itself are the most common reasons for pain and discomfort in the mouth. However, there are certain situations where oral symptoms are caused as a result of systemic diseases. This review article has emphasized on the diverse oral presentations of postmenopausal women by descriptive analysis of various underlying mechanisms associated with these conditions. Dentists should be aware of the possible association of menopause and various oral health problems.
