Introduction:

A possible association between periodontitis and other diseases and systemic conditions has been reported by the medical literature for many years.

Objective:

To determine the relationship between periodontitis and dyslipidemia and obesity or both of them.

Material and Methods:

An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted. The universe consisted of 9 350 individuals between the ages of 35 and 70 years, of both sexes who live in Plaza de la Revolución Municipality. From this universe, a sample composed of 1 200 individuals who gave their consent to participate in the study was selected by simple random sampling method. Their clinical records should include the results of complementary tests to determine dyslipidemia in the last six months; also, they should have at least six teeth in the mouth. The variables studies included: periodontitis, dyslipidemia, obesity and the presence of dyslipidemia and obesity in the same individual. The subjects were divided into three groups: with dyslipidemia, obese and with both entities (dyslipidemia+obesity).

Results:

The most common variable found was dyslipidemia (73,0%), followed by periodontitis (62,2%). Periodontitis was more frequently found in individuals with dyslipidemia (48,1%), and the majority of obese subjects had periodontitis. Periodontitis was more frequent in individuals with dyslipidemia + obesity than in the ones that did not present both entities at the same time.

Conclusions:

Periodontitis was associated with dyslipidemia, obesity and with both entities at the same time, but it was not associated with obesity only. However, it was more frequent in obese subjects than in non-obese ones.

Palavras-chave : Dyslipidemia; obesity and periodontitis; simple random method.
