Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Maintaining good oral health is essential for general health and quality of life. Results of many anal-yses showed that stroke patients had poorer oral condition and worse periodontal status than control population. The aim of the study was to carry out a clinical observation concerning condition of oral health in stroke patients and healthy population.

The oral health was assessed in patients with stroke and in (control group). The following elements were assessed: missing teeth, the presence of active caries foci, the presence of existing fillings and prosthetic restorations. To assess oral hygiene API (Approximal Plaque Index) was used. As part of periodontal examina-tion, the following were assessed: the presence of dental deposits, the depth of the existing periodontal pockets, tooth mobility according to Hall and Sulcus Bleeding Index during probing (SBI).

Intervention Type OTHER

The oral health was assessed in each patient enrolled in the study. The examination was performed by using dental mirror and a calibrated periodontal probe in the artificial lightning

control group

The control group (59 individuals) matched for age and gender was selected among patients of the Department of Interdisciplinary Dentistry at Pomeranian Medical University in Szczecin.
