“…A longitudinal study found that there is no contribution from socioeconomic differences in attitudes toward tooth loss and dental care 31 . Conversely, other studies demonstrated that lower socioeconomic status is associated with decreased utilization of dental care services, worse oral health, and increased tooth loss compared with higher socioeconomic groups 32‐34 . Interestingly, the current study reveals that an individual's socioeconomic status is not significantly correlated to the prognosis of root‐resected molars (Table 4) but plays an important role in the therapeutic decision‐making process (Table 2).…”

The overall survival rate of root-resected molars was satisfactory. Patients with advanced age (>74 years) had a higher risk of extraction occurrence on resected molars. Patient-related factors may influence the treatment decision of whether molars receive flap surgery. These findings suggest that demographic factors should be carefully evaluated before and after performing root-resection procedures because these factors may eventually impact the outcome of root-resected molars.

“…This combination is described as the basis and the ‘gold standard’ of periodontal treatment. When applied consistently, periodontal health can be maintained in long term , disclosing in the latter study a time frame of up to 30 years of SPT. In this review, three studies reported data on PPD changes .…”

PurposeThe purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the effect of patient compliance with supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) on tooth loss in Korean adults.MethodsThe periodontal records of 134 patients were reviewed for this study. They completed active periodontal treatment from 1999 to 2001 and were placed on a schedule of periodic follow-up visits for SPT. Patient compliance was classified into complete compliance (CC), erratic compliance (EC), and noncompliance (NC) groups. Re-examinations were carried out 11.0±0.8 years after the active periodontal treatment. The prognosis for each tooth was determined as good, questionable, or hopeless according to the bone loss observed in pretreatment radiographs.ResultsThe rate of tooth loss of the CC group was significantly lower than that of the NC group. The tooth loss/patient and the tooth loss/patient/year were not significantly different between the three groups. The rates of tooth loss in the good, questionable, and hopeless prognosis groups were 6.7%, 9.5%, and 13.2%, respectively. For the teeth with a good prognosis, the rate of tooth loss of the CC group was significantly lower than that of the NC group (0.4% vs. 5.1%). For the teeth with a questionable prognosis, the CC group showed a significantly lower rate of tooth loss than did the EC group (4.1% vs. 30.7%) or the NC group (4.1% vs. 25.6%). For the teeth with a hopeless prognosis, the rates of tooth loss were not significantly different among the three groups.ConclusionsWithin the limits of this study, the patients who showed a poor compliance with SPT were more likely to lose teeth than were the regularly compliant patients. However, the risk of tooth loss with a hopeless prognosis was high irrespective of the compliance.Graphical Abstract

Tooth loss in aggressive periodontitis after active periodontal therapy: patient-related and tooth-related prognostic factors

Abstract: Baseline bone loss, abutment status, tooth location, and type as well as time of follow-up and educational status were detected as prognostic factors for tooth loss during SPT in patients with AgP at tooth level.
