Objective: To compare the periodontal health status among orthodontic and non-orthodontic groups aged between 14-30
years of both genders.
Study design And Setting: This comparative cross sectional study was conducted at Department of Orthodontics and
Periodontics from January 2019-till June 2019 at dental Hospital of Bahria Dental College Karachi.
Methodology: Those patients aged 14-30 under orthodontics treatment for about 3 months and were able to give consent
were included in the study. Periodontal status among both groups (65 orthodontics and 65 non orthodontic) patients was
evaluated with the help of CPITN probe on index teeth. To assess the oral hygiene status; the questionnaire was formulated
regarding the use and frequency of toothbrush; use of interdental cleaners such as interdental brush, use of mouthwash,
use of tongue cleaners and dental appointments. A single observer from periodontics department was appointed for
observation and record data of patients coming to orthodontic department and to carry out a clinical examination. The data
was scrutinized using SPSS 23, and using the chi-square test various other comparisons were performed.
Results: Statistically significant association was observed in CPITN scores between the orthodontic and non-orthodontic
patients (p < 0.05). Patients who underwent orthodontic treatment had increased plaque accumulation and probing depth
which resulted in periodontal tissue destruction.
Conclusion: It was concluded that the periodontal condition of ortho patients was deteriorating as compare to non ortho
patient. There was no noticeable attachment loss found that could lead to mobility of the tooth and its loss.
