Abstract
Las enfermedades periodontales son un problema de salud pública a nivel mundial. Recientemente, se ha comunicado que la periodontitis severa era la sexta condición más prevalente en el mundo, con una prevalencia global estandarizada del 11,2%. Otras revisiones a nivel mundial han concluido que las formas moderadas de periodontitis afectan a un porcentaje de adultos todavía mayor. Dado que las tendencias de estas enfermedades cambian con el tiempo, las encuestas epidemiológicas son necesarias para estudiar su prevalencia, severidad y extensión periódicamente, así como las posibles repercusiones que puedan tener sobre la salud sistémica. En Europa, se han llevado a cabo varios estudios epidemiológicos nacionales en países con diferentes condiciones socioeconómicas y organización de los servicios de atención dental. La mayoría de los estudios en Europa han utilizado el índice CPITN (Community Periodontal Index and Treatment Needs), modificado posteriormente a Community Periodontal Index [en español, Índice Periodontal Comunitario (IPC)], auspiciados por la Organización mundial de la Salud (OMS), con el fin de evaluar el estado periodontal de las poblaciones estudiadas. En España se han realizado estudios nacionales los años 2000, 2005 y 2010, utilizando la metodología previamente reseñada. Sin embargo, hasta la fecha no se han realizado encuestas dirigidas específicamente a la salud bucodental de la población ocupada...
Periodontal diseases are an important public health problem worldwide. Recently, it has been reported that severe periodontitis was the sixth-most prevalent condition in the world with a global age-standardized prevalence of 11.2%. Previous worldwide reviews have also reported that milder forms of periodontitis affect even a higher percentage of adults. Since these disease trends change over time, epidemiological surveys are periodically needed to study their prevalence, extension and severity, as well as the possible systemic and professional health repercussions In Europe, several national epidemiological surveys have been conducted in countries with different socioeconomic conditions and different organizations of dental health services. Most European studies have used the Community Periodontal Index and Treatment Needs (CPITN), which was later modified to Community Periodontal Index (CPI), to assess the periodontal status of the population samples. In Spain, excluding the first national study on the prevalence of periodontal diseases and tooth decay, national studies have been conducted since 1993 with homogeneous design criteria, thus, allowing comparing those conducted in 2000, 2005 and 2010. All of them followed the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for oral health surveys. However, to date, no epidemiological surveys specifically focused on the employed population have been conducted in Spain...
