BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the periodontal status of liver transplant candidates (LTCs) with healthy controls.
METHODS: Fifty liver transplant candidates (LTC group) and fifty patients without liver disease (control group) underwent a complete periodontal examination. The groups were matched according to sex, age, and smoking status. A structured questionnaire was applied to record demographic data, systemic health, and information related to liver disease. Full-mouth complete periodontal examination of six sites per tooth was performed: gingival recession (GR), probing depth (PD), attachment loss (AL), bleeding on probing (BOP), and visible plaque index (VPI). The groups were compared in regard to periodontal clinical variables.
RESULTS: Patients with cirrhosis had greater prevalence of periodontitis than healthy controls (P < 0.001). In addition, they had greater mean percentage of sites with AL ≥3 mm (P = 0.008) and AL ≥5 mm (P = 0.023), greater mean AL (P = 0.003), greater mean gingival recession (P < 0.001), and more missing teeth than in the control group (P = 0.02).
CONCLUSION: Liver transplant candidates presented greater prevalence, extent, and severity of periodontitis than matched control patients.
