The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of the oral health behaviors and lifestyle of hypertension patients on their perceived periodontaldiseases. The data of the 2013 community health survey were used, and the data of 55,632 patients who suffered from hypertension and who wereat the ages of 19 and over was analyzed. The analying methods used in this study were chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analysis. Gender, age, marital status, education, economic activity, income level and subscription to private medical insurance were identified as the factorsto affect the perceived periodontal disease of the hypertension patients, and lifestyle and oral health behaviors were found to have exerted asignificant influence on perceived periodontal disease. As this study found that not only the socioeconomic characteristics of the hypertensionpatients but their oral health care and lifestyle were all correlated with perceived periodontal disease, how to promote the oral health of those whoare susceptible to periodontal diseases should carefully be considered.
