“…gingivalis , were detected at the highest frequency among the elderly; such results indicate that periodontal disease increases with increasing age. Moreover, the self-cleaning action of saliva also decreases and oral hygiene ability declines with an increase in age, which could accelerate periodontal disease due to the faster accumulation of biofilm [ 28 ]. Periodontal disease is an infectious disease, but personal habits, such as drinking and smoking, and systemic factors, such as body weight, also have an influence.…”

Background This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the association between osteoporosis and periodontal disease among Korean menopausal women, as well as the association between osteoporosis and periodontal disease according to duration after menopause. Methods Of a total of 22,948 subjects who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, from 2013 to 2015 the final study population was limited to 2,573 subjects with no missing values. The subjects were divided into two groups, normal bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis, according to the T-score obtained from bone densitometry. Scores of ≥ 3 points for the community periodontal index of treatment needs were reclassified as periodontal disease. Moreover, after stratification of the variable ‘duration after menopause’ into 0–4, 5–9, and ≥10 years, binary logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between osteoporosis and periodontal disease according to the duration after menopause. Results There was an association between osteoporosis and periodontal disease. The osteoporosis group had an adjusted odds ratio [OR] of 1.25 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00–1.56) for periodontal disease compared to the normal BMD group. Of note, the osteoporosis group in the menopausal transition stage (0–4 years after menopause) showed an adjusted OR of 2.08 (95% CI: 1.15–3.77) for developing periodontal disease. Conclusions Osteoporosis was associated with periodontal disease and the association was strongest among women in the menopausal transition stage, 0–4 years after menopause. Oral health promotion, including regular oral examination and oral hygiene care, is particularly useful for menopausal transition women with osteoporosis.

“…This cross-sectional study is part of a larger project focusing on oral health in the 65-year-old population in Oslo, Norway (the OM65-study) 29 and was carried out as a collaboration between the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Oslo; and the Norwegian Dry Eye Clinic. The Norwegian Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics approved the study protocol (REK 2018/1383).…”

In the present study, the relationship between dry eyes and dry mouth was explored in 150 65-year-old subjects randomly selected from the general population in Oslo, Norway. The number of drugs, including xerogenic drugs, and current and previous systemic diseases were recorded. Ocular parameters recorded were the McMonnies Dry Eye Questionnaire, the Ocular Surface Disease Index, the Schirmer I Test, tear film break-up time and ocular surface staining. The oral parameters were xerostomia frequency, Summated Xerostomia Inventory, Clinical Oral Dryness Score, and unstimulated and stimulated whole saliva. The participants with current or previous systemic diseases had significantly more ocular and oral symptoms and significantly more oral clinical findings than the participants without a history of disease. Moreover, correlation and factor analyses demonstrated an association between subjective ocular and oral parameters. A significant correlation between the total number of drugs and the presence of ocular and oral symptoms was also noted. When the participants were categorized based on their ocular symptoms, poorer values were found for the oral parameters among the participants more troubled with dry eyes. The results in the present study call for increased awareness and an interdisciplinary approach in matters related to dry eyes and dry mouth.

“…This cross-sectional study is a sub-study on ocular health as an extension to a larger project focusing on oral health in 65-year-olds in Oslo, Norway (OM65) [12]. A total of 457 Oslo residents attended the examination in the OM65 study, and they were all invited to participate in the current study to examine the health status of their ocular surfaces.…”

Analyses of meibography may help in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). However, there is currently a paucity of data regarding meibography analyses in the young elderly populations in the Nordic countries. In the current study, meibography of the upper and lower eyelids of 117 65-year-old residents in Oslo, Norway, who did not fulfil the diagnosis of dry eye disease (DED) were analysed. Meibomian gland (MG) dropout and tarsal areas were measured semi-automatically using ImageJ software. The relationship between morphological features of the MGs and clinical dry eye tests was examined. The median percent MG dropout was 26.1% and 40.7% in the upper and lower eyelids, respectively. There was no significant difference between males and females. None of the MG morphological parameters demonstrated significant values in discriminating abnormal dry eye symptom loads or MGD diagnosis from the normal loads. We therefore concluded that moderate MG atrophy was common among the Norwegian population of 65-year-olds without DED and showed no sexual differences. Meibography alone cannot discriminate MGD from non-MGD; thus, both morphological and functional MG tests are necessary when screening for MGD.
