Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Iodine deficiency is an important public health problem by affecting 10-15% of the population due to the diseases it causes. Iodine deficiency affects individuals of all ages. When the daily iodine requirement cannot be met, a group of mental, physical and developmental retardation symptoms called "Iodine deficiency disorders" (IEB) (Iodine deficiency disorders-IDD) occur. With the obligatory iodization of table salt, which started in 1998 in order to eliminate iodine deficiency in Turkey, this problem has been tried to be combated by switching to iodized salt consumption.
The study material was used by 73 adult individuals who applied to Atatürk University Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Periodontology for different reasons {1. group (H): periodontally healthy individuals, group 2 (P): individuals with periodontitis}. Urine samples will be collected from the participants without any periodontal intervention. Iodine levels in the urine will be studied.
There are studies in the literature to determine iodine deficiency and to determine the population periodontal disease status; however, there are no studies evaluating the possible relationship between iodine deficiency and periodontitis.
The aim of this study; To evaluate the iodine levels detected in the urine samples of patients with periodontitis by comparing them with healthy controls, and to investigate the possible role of iodine deficiency in the pathogenesis of periodontitis or a simple marker of disease activity in the light of these findings.
