“…Considering the factors affecting oral health that have been studied so far, not only dietary habits and smoking, but also oral health habits such as dental visits, toothbrushing, and the use of oral hygiene products have been reported as factors affecting oral health [ 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 ]. Lifestyle habits account for about 60% of the causes of chronic diseases, highlighting the importance of self-management and professional education programs for correct lifestyle changes [ 46 ]. Therefore, for the prevention of periodontal disease, a tool that can measure oral health habits including various risk variables is needed.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate periodontal risk factors with oral health habits and fluorescent plaque index (FPI) using quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) images, and to evaluate their effect on the degree of radiographic bone loss (RBL). Selected were 276 patients over 19 years of age to complete the questionnaire for oral health habit and take QLF images, periapical and panoramic radiographs. Oral health habit score, age, and sex showed a statistically significant correlation with FPI. FPI showed a lower value as the oral health habit score increased and the age decreased. Moreover, females showed lower FPI values than did males. RBL showed a statistically significant positive correlation with age but did not show any correlation with oral health habit scores and sex. There was no correlation between FPI and RBL. The results of this study suggest that the clinical use of QLF allows plaque detection by non-invasive procedures and can aid in a more objective estimation for oral hygiene status.

“…High triglyceride levels in the blood have also been associated with coronary heart disease and hypertension 4,5 . Hypertension is the most common cardiovascular risk factor in the USA 6,7 , and a number of studies have shown unequivocally a powerful association between high blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular disease 8,9 . Dietary salt reduction has been recommended to reduce hypertension and cardiovascular disease mortality and morbidity 10,11 .…”
