Abstract:
Periodontitis links to metabolic syndrome (MS) through chronic inflammation affecting teeth-supporting structures. Hence, this cross-sectional study examined 330 metabolic syndrome patients for periodontitis staging, probing depth, attachment loss, teeth count and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). Periodontitis prevalence reached 74.5%, distributed as 44.5% Stage I, 17% Stage II, 7% Stage III and 6% Stage IV; only raised blood sugar correlated significantly (p=0.036). Average OHRQoL score was 20.88±7.42, worsening beyond 35 in Stages III-IV. Findings advance understanding by quantifying staging-specific OHRQoL decline, supporting targeted periodontal screening in metabolic syndrome.
