Objectives: The correlation coefficient between each component of oral malodor and amount of gingival crevicular fluid which is known as related with gingivitis, was estimated in order to apply the oral malodor control clinically.
Methods: 90 adults (Male=50, Female=40) were participated who visited at Seoul Ho Dental Clinic or the department of Preventive Dentistry in Dankook Dental Hospital. Oral examination, halitosis check, and gingival crevicular fluid at maxillary right first molar and central incisor portions were measured.
Results: In the Oralchroma measurement, the average value of 37.52¡¾84.26ppb in the Hydrogen Sulfide, 19.64¡¾41.50ppb in Methyl Mercaptan value, and 29.77¡¾60.57ppb in Dimethyl Sulfide was investigated. In the other hand, the rest of average measurement values were investigated with 41.31¡¾12.09 BBV in BB checker, 29.59¡¾31.87ppm in Attain. The average value of gingival index was calculated 0.85¡¾0.30 and 1.69¡¾0.92 in CPITN, otherwise GCF was estimated 52.77¡¾15.60. Due to the correlation test results, GCF value had a correlationship with r=0.221(p<0.05) of Methyl Mercaptan, r=0.285(p<0.05) with the BB checker value, r=0.458(p<0.05) for the ATTAIN value, r=0.634(p<0.05) for Gingival index and r=0.404(p<0.05) with in the CPITN. It revealed that more gases of Hydrogen Sulfide, BBV, and Ammonia were measured in moderate periodontitis group than in mild periodontitis group(p<0.05), otherwise only Ammonia was checked more in
CPITN 2 or 3 group than in CPITN 0 or 1 group(p<0.05).
Conclusion: Volatile sulfur compound, BB checker value and ammonia elements increase in accordance to the
periodontal health. And this finding supports that using GCF level to determine the periodontal disease patient have more valuable classification in halitosis towards the periodontal disease patient.
