Background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the supporting tissues of the teeth resulting in progressive destruction of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. The understanding of the aetiology and pathogenesis of the disease currently being hosted response of disease susceptible individuals to the bacterial products. Fingerprint patterns, being unique, unaffected by the environment, have a unique role in identifying an individual and their phenotype characteristics. Determine the correlation between dermatoglyphics and periodontitis and to compare the patterns of individuals with healthy periodontium and those with periodontitis. Materials and Methods: Dermatoglyphic patterns of 143 patients with healthy periodontium and 143 patients with periodontitis were analysed to determine the variations of dermatoglyphic patterns: Ulnar loop (U), Radial loop (R), Whorls (W) and Arches (A). The study groups used in this study are: Control, Chronic Periodontitis (CP) and Aggressive Periodontitis (AP). Chi-square test of association (two-tailed) is used for the analysis, and the significance level is taken to be p<0.05 Statistical Analysis was carried out using statistical package, SPSS (version 22.0.0.0). Results: The observations made in the study were a decrease in double loops in aggressive periodontitis and chronic periodontitis, a decrease in ulnar loops and concentric whorls in aggressive periodontitis and an increase in transverse ulnar loops, symmetric whorls, concentric whorls and plain arches in chronic periodontitis. Conclusion: Dermatoglyphics can hence be used for early detection and implementing preventive measures for periodontitis susceptible individuals.Keywords

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the self-perception of oral malodour and oral hygiene habits among dental students in Ernakulam district of Kerala. Materials and Methods: A structured and validated questionnaire comprising of ten questions was distributed to 787 students of five dental colleges in the Ernakulam district of Kerala. The questionnaire evaluated the self-perception of halitosis, the oral hygiene practices among them and the presence of gingival bleeding, dental caries and dryness of mouth. Results: The dental students here included 678 females and 109 males. Self-perceived halitosis was reported by 46(42.2%) male students and 221(32.6%) female students showing a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) between both genders in reporting self-perceived halitosis. Conclusion: The results reveal a higher prevalence of self-perceived halitosis among males compared to females in this sample. The knowledge about halitosis and related factors was also greater among this sample of dental students. Clinical significance: The findings of our study highlight the fact that the regular removal of tongue coating and use of interdental aids along with regular oral hygiene measures can significantly reduce halitosis in an otherwise healthy individual.
