ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Pola makan vegetarian diketahui memiliki efek positif terhadap
kesehatan. Penelitian mengenai status periodontal pada vegetarian masih sedikit.
Tujuan: Mengevaluasi kedalaman poket periodontal, resesi gingiva, dan kehilangan
perlekatan pada vegetarian secara klinis. Metode: Penelitian potong lintang pada 30
orang vegetarian dan 30 orang non-vegetarian berusia 16-65 tahun. Pemeriksaan
klinis jaringan periodontal meliputi kedalaman poket, resesi gingiva, dan kehilangan
perlekatan. Hasil: Tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna (p>0,05) rerata kedalaman
poket (Independent T-Test), resesi gingiva dan kehilangan perlekatan (uji Mann-
Whitney) antara vegetarian dan non-vegetarian. Kesimpulan: Hasil evaluasi klinis
terhadap kedalaman poket periodontal, resesi gingiva, dan kehilangan perlekatan
tidak berbeda antara vegetarian dan non-vegetarian.
ABSTRACTBackground: Vegetarian diet is known to have positive effects on health. Only
scarce data are available concerning the periodontal status in vegetarians.
Objectives: To evaluate the periodontal pocket depth, gingival recession, and
clinical attachment level in vegetarians clinically. Methods: A cross-sectional study
of 30 vegetarians and 30 non-vegetarians aged 16-65 years. Clinical examination of
periodontal tissues, including periodontal pocket depth, gingival recession, and
clinical attachment level. Results: No significant mean differences (p>0,05) on
periodontal pocket depth (independent T-test), gingival recession and clinical
attachment level (Mann-Whitney test) between vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
Conclusions: Clinical evaluation results of periodontal pocket depth, gingival
recession, and clinical attachment level in vegetarians are not different between
vegetarians and non-vegetarians.
