Physical activity was assessed through the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire, and accordingly, subjects were classified as performing either high or low LTPA/OPA. Periodontal status was assessed through a full-mouth periodontal examination, and subjects were classified according to the AAP/CDC criteria (no, mild, moderate, or severe periodontitis). Simple and multiple regression analyses were applied to study the association between LTPA/OPA and periodontitis/severe periodontitis. Results: Multiple regression analyses identified high LTPA as a protective indicator for periodontitis (odds ratio [OR] = 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.72-0.92), while high OPA was found to be a significant risk indicator (OR = 1.16; 95% CI: 1.04-1.30). The combination low LTPA/high OPA showed a cumulative independent association with periodontitis (OR = 1.47; 95% CI: 1.26-1.72). Moreover, both high LTPA (OR = 0.72; 95% CI: 0.58-0.90) and high OPA (OR = 1.29; 95% CI: 1.09-1.53) were significantly associated with stronger estimates of severe periodontitis; the same was observed for the combination of low LTPA/high OPA (OR = 1.66; 95% CI: 1.29-2.15). Conclusions: LTPA and OPA showed divergent associations with periodontitis.engAttribution-NonCommercial 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/journal article1600-051Xhttps://doi.org/10.1111/jcpe.1376636592958open access616.314.17-008.1796.01National Health and Nutrition Examination SurveyEpidemiological factorsExercisePeriodontal diseasesOdontología (Odontología)PeriodonciaMedicina del deporte3299 Otras Especialidades Médicas3213.13 Ortodoncia-Estomatología2411.06 Fisiología del Ejercicio
