Study Reveals Significant Association Between Dietary AGEs and Periodontitis

Posted: December 12, 2024
The study establishes a strong link between high dietary intake of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and periodontitis. Participants consuming AGEs above 21.41 U/kcal showed higher prevalence of periodontitis. The odds ratios for periodontitis in relation to higher AGEs intake were significant even after adjusting for associated factors. This highlights the critical role of food quality in oral health and emphasizes the impact of dietary AGEs on periodontitis development. The findings underscore the need for dental professionals to educate patients on the harmful effects of AGEs in various foods on periodontal health.
