Abstract

Background : Regarding the negative effects of inflammatory disease including periodontal infections on cardiovascular diseases, this study was carried out in order to investigate the periodontal status of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) referring to two hospitals in Zahedan.
Materials and Methods : In this study, 100 patients with CAD who referred to Khatam-al-Anbia and Imam Ali Hospitals in Zahedan were examined. After clinical examination, periodontal parameters PD (probing depth), AL (attachment level), PI (plaque index), and GR (gingival recession) were determined. Preparing the radiography, the average percentage of bone resorption overall the mouth was measured and registered. The results were analyzed using SPSS-17.
Results : Plaque accumulation in 92% of the subjects of study was more than 10%. Pocket depth in the patients was as follows: 18% of the patients had less than 2 mm PD 13% of them 2-2.99 mm 43% with 3-45.99 mm PD and 26% of them had deep pocket (> 5 mm). In relation to attachment loss, the results were as follows: in 9% of the patients 1-2 mm 41% of them 3-4 mm, and for 50% of the patients AL was more than 5 mm. the average of gingival recession in the subjects was 3.31±1.9. Considering bone resorption, 6.7% of the people had less than 20% resorption, 46.7% had 20-39% resorption and in 46.7% of them, resorption was 40-60%.
Conclusion : In this study, affliction to periodontal diseases was said to be the cause of Coronary Artery Disease.
