RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SERUM VITAMIN D LEVELS AND PERIODONTAL STATUS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: The study aimed to investigate the correlation between serum vitamin D concentration and the rate and severity of periodontitis diagnosed according to the American Academy of Periodontology 2015 (AAP 2015). Subjects and methods: 60 patients (29 patients with periodontitis (PG) and 31 people with healthy periodontal tissue (HG) diagnosed according to AAP 2015) at the Dental Clinic of Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy (UMP) from October 2022 to August 2023. The two groups of subjects were clinically examined for periodontal tissue and assessed for serum vitamin D concentration using the Cobas 6000 module e601 (electrochemiluminescence immunoassay) of the testing center according to the manufacturer's procedure. Periodontal clinical indicators and serum vitamin D concentrations were analyzed using Stata 14 statistical software, the test was statistically significant when the p value was <0.05. Results: No statistically significant correlation was found between serum vitamin D concentrations and periodontal disease severity (p =0.43). No statistically significant correlation was found between serum vitamin D concentrations and periodontal disease prevalence (p =0.41). Serum vitamin D concentrations were inversely correlated with plaque index, gingival index and % bone loss on panoramic X-rays with r coefficients of -0.5; -0.33; -0.45, respectively, statistically significant (p <0.05). No correlation was found between serum vitamin D concentrations and pocket depth, attachment loss and gingival bleeding percentage during examination, the difference was not statistically significant (p >0.05). Conclusion: Serum vitamin D concentration had a statistically significant negative correlation with plaque index, gingival index and % bone resorption on panoramic radiographs. Keywords: diagnosis, periodontal disease, serum vitamin D concentration.
