The Effect of Oral Health on Obesity in Middle-aged Men

Background/Objectives: This study is to discuss the determinants of oral health variables that affect the obesity of some middle-aged men and to help them to operate an effective obesity-related program. Methods/Statistical analysis: In oral health, the body mass index was high when the teeth were sore, when there was mental discomfort, when there was periodontal disease. Scaling, frequency of brushing and use of oral hygiene supplements were the factors affecting the obesity of oral health behavior. That is, when you regularly measure BMI, you have more than three brushings per day and a higher BMI when you use oral hygiene products. Findings: The factors affecting the waist circumference are the higher waist circumference when scaling is performed regularly and the number of brushings per day is more than three times. The presence of periodontal disease, gum bleeding, and long waist circumference were associated with oral health loss, tooth loss, and periodontal disease. The conclusion of this study is that middle-aged men are required to manage their obesity and to have good health and oral health status in order to lead a healthy life. Factors influencing body mass index were demographic, socioeconomic, family, and age, religion, and occupation were not statistically significant. In other words, middle-aged men with lower economic status had higher BMI than those with higher middle-aged men. Improvements/Applications: Self - health care behaviors for lowering obesity in middle - aged men and health and oral health promotion projects with low cost and high efficiency should be systematically promoted.
