Abstract

Objectives
This study aimed to show a correlation between periodontal disease and hypertension.
Methods
This study analyzed data of 6794 adults over 19 years based on results from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for the period 2016-2018. Complex sample analysis and propensity score matching analysis methods were conducted to determine whether a correlation between periodontal disease and hypertension existed.
Results
Results of the complex sample logistic regression analysis were: OR=1.4 (95% CI:1.23-1.58). However, the result of the conditional logistic regression analysis after propensity score matching yielded no correlation between periodontitis and hypertension (OR=1.03 (95% CI:0.92-1.16)).
Conclusions
It is difficult to conclude that a significant correlation exists between hypertension and periodontal disease, and further studies need to be performed to assess a significant correlation.
