Résumé
Objective: To evaluate periodontal status of 380 pregnant women and its related factors. Methods: 380 healthy pregnant women aged 20 to 43 at 10-35 weeks of gestation were enrolled and received a questionnaire and a periodontal examination, in order to compare and analyse the effects of different ages, gestational weeks and educational levels on periodontal condition. Results: The prevalence of periodontal disease of the subjects was 87. 1％. In first (10-15 weeks), second (16-27 weeks) and third (28-35 weeks) trimester PD (mm) was 2. 48 ± 0. 54, 2. 60 ± 0. 54 and 2. 71 ± 0. 48 respectively (P ＜ 0. 05) ; the percentage of PD≥4 mm in 2 or more sites were 76. 5％, 84. 1％ and 93. 5％ respectively (P ＜ 0. 05) ; GI and BI did not show significant differences among of the 3 groups trimester stages (P＞ 0. 05) ; PD in maternal age (year) 20-27, 28-35 and 36-43 years was2. 39 ± 0. 51, 2. 61 ± 0. 53 and 2. 61 ± 0. 56 respectively (P ＜ 0. 05) . A significantly positive linear trend was observed between age and GI (P ＜ 0. 05) or PD (P ＜ 0. 05), but without significant correlation between age and BI. Significant correlation was found between pregnant weeks and PD (P ＜ 0. 05), but without correlation between pregnant weeks and GI (P＞ 0. 05) or BI (P＞ 0. 05) .Conclusion: The prevalence of periodontal disease during pregnancy is high. Meanwhile, the periodontal inflammation is increasing worse with the increase of gestational weeks and maternal age.
