将 55 名有齿状唐氏综合症 (DS) 患者和 74 名非唐氏精神障碍 (MR) 患者与 88 名对照受试者进行比较。 MR 组和对照组的受试者按性别和种族与 DS 受试者进行匹配。所有受试者均不吸烟。牙周评估包括菌斑指数（PI）、牙龈指数（GI）、探诊出血（BOP）和临床牙周附着水平。记录龋齿和缺失牙齿。还记录了个人牙齿卫生措施和专业牙科护理的频率。大多数受试者每天至少刷一次牙，但不使用牙线。与对照组相比，DS 和 MR 组的牙齿缺失量、BOP 和 GI 和 PI 水平均明显更高。 DS 患者比其他两组患者有更多的依恋丧失 (AL) (p < .001)。 DS 患者的 AL 增加与社会经济地位、个人/专业牙科护理或精神残疾的差异无关。
Fifty-five dentate patients with Down syndrome (DS) and 74 with mental disability non-Down (MR) were compared to 88 control subjects. Subjects in the MR and Control groups were matched by gender and ethnicity to subjects with DS. All subjects were nonsmokers. Periodontal evaluation included plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), and clinical periodontal attachment levels. Caries and missing teeth were recorded. Measures of personal dental hygiene and the frequency of professional dental care were also recorded. Most subjects brushed their teeth at least once per day, but did not floss. Both groups with DS and MR had significantly more missing teeth, more BOP, and higher GI and PI levels than the control group. Patients with DS had more attachment loss (AL) than the other two groups (p < .001). Increased AL in patients with DS was not associated with differences in socioeconomic status, personal/professional dental care, or mental disability.
