NCT04045808 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 309

Last updated 2019-08-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We hypothesized that periodontal disease and edentulism could be a risk for CAD and there might be a relationship between the oral status and the number of main coronary vessels with ≥ 50% stenosis. Therefore, primary goal of this study is to investigate the connection between oral status and the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD), which is diagnosed by angiography.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

radiographic evaluations were done

For radiographic analysis, periapical radiographs were taken from teeth with ≥ 4mm PPD using a hand held intra-oral x-ray system operating at 60kVp, 1.5 mA . The alveolar bone loss was measured by a personal computer with the Microsoft Windows XP operating system with original software.
