Title

INFLUENCE OF KHAT CHEWING ON PERIODONTAL TISSUES AND ORAL HYGIENE STATUS AMONG YEMENIS

Pages

  1-6

Abstract

 Background: KHAT chewing is popular among YEMENis. This study was performed to investigate the effects of KHAT chewing on periodontal tissue and ORAL HYGIENE status.Methods: A total of 730 subjects (336 CHEWERS and 394 non-CHEWERS with a mean age of 31.5±0.8 and 29.4±0.9 years, respectively) were involved. Clinical data on periodontal tissues, ORAL HYGIENE sta-tus, gingival bleeding, burning sensation in the soft tissues, halitosis, ulcers in the oral cavity, difficulty in opening the mouth and swallowing solid food were collected to evaluate periodontal condition. Lo-gistic regression analysis, student t test and chi-squared test were employed according to which hypo-theses were being tested.Results: The ORAL HYGIENE status of non-CHEWERS was significantly better than that of CHEWERS. The mean ORAL HYGIENE index of CHEWERS was 2.12±0.86 while that of non-CHEWERS was 1.54±1.12, the difference being statistically significant (P<0.001). The incidence of gingival bleeding was signifi-cantly higher in KHAT-CHEWERS. About 23% of CHEWERS complained of difficulty in mouth-opening, as compared with only about 1% of non-CHEWERS. Furthermore, 10% of CHEWERS had difficulty in swal-lowing solid food. A burning sensation in the soft tissues was also found in a higher proportion of KHAT-CHEWERS. Similarly, ulcers on the oral mucosa were present in about 7% of CHEWERS, as com-pared to 0.5% of non-CHEWERS. Gingival recession was present in about 51% and 26% of CHEWERS and non-CHEWERS, respectively.Conclusion: There does appear to be a relationship between the effect of chewing KHAT on peri-odontal tissue and ORAL HYGIENE status.
