INTRODUCTION
• The World Health Professional Alliance (WHPA)
acclaimed that “the global epidemic of non-communicable
diseases (NCDs) has become a significant threat to human
health and development and unless urgently addressed, the
burden of NCDs would continue its dramatic increase”.
5
20082014
6
• Oral diseases, including dental caries, periodontal disease
and oral cancer, are neglected but important to NCDs with
a significant burden on overall health.
• It is well known and established that oral diseases
significantly affect quality of life and its associated
healthcare expenditure has a catastrophic effect on the
public health budgets.
7
HISTORY
• Until the 1950s
• Mid twentieth century
• Shifting of focus
• Framingham Heart Study
8
DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH
• Health is an amalgamation of many factors.
• The Dahlgren and Whitehead's model (1991) depicted a
core of individuals grouped together with some of the non-
modifiable risk factors for disease such as age, gender and
heredity.

RISK FACTORS
• “Any attribute, characteristic or exposure of an individual
that increases the likelihood of developing a disease or
injury.”
10
World Health Organization. (2014). Risk factors. Accessed Jan 23, 2018
IMPACT OF SOCIAL DETERMINANTS ON RISK
FACTORS
• In dentistry, most health promotion is addressed at an
individual level in hopes of changing individual lifestyle
factors.
• For health promotion, including dental health promotion,
to have a more far-reaching affect it should be directed at
the wider sphere of determinants, such as the social and
community networks.

UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM APPROACH
13McKinlay 1979
ORAL HEALTH & GENERAL HEALTH
CONNECTION
• Traditionally medicine and dentistry have been seen as
fields unrelated to each other.
• Medicine and dentistry are studied in different schools and
have separate professional associations but both
professions are related by human anatomy.
14
• “Oral health promotion and oral disease prevention should
embrace what is termed ‘the common risk factor
approach,’ leading to the integration of oral health
promotion into broader health promotion.”

promotion and oral disease prevention-WHO recommendations for
improved evidence in public health practice. Community Dent Health. p.1.

COMMON RISK FACTORS
16
SMOKING/TOBACCO
• Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of disease,
disability and death.
• For every person who dies from a smoking-related disease,
about 30 more people experience at least one serious
illness from smoking.
17
ORAL HEALTH
• Stained Teeth,
• Reduction Of Taste,
• Periodontal Disease,
• Oral Cancer,
• Decreased Wound
Healing
• Decrease In The Body’s
Immune Response To
Infection
• Reduced Salivary Flow
Rate
GENERAL HEALTH
• Vascular Stenosis
• Lung Cancer
• Cardiovascular diseases
• Chronic Obstructive
Pulmonary Disease
• Smoking During
Pregnancy Causes Pre
mature delivery
• Sudden Infant Death
Syndrome
18
• Smoking as a modifiable risk factor for both periodontal
disease and coronary heart disease is well documented.
• A study (2017) reported a positive association between
apical periodontitis and cardiovascular disease.

Berlin-Broner Y, Febbraio M, Levin L. Association between apical
periodontitis and cardiovascular diseases: a systematic review of the
literature. International Endodontic Journal. 50, 847–859, 2017.
ALCOHOL
• Alcohol is considered as one of the independent
modifiable risk factors for periodontitis.
• Excessive intake of alcohol is also a risk factor for NCDs.
20
• Alcoholism- Failure to fulfill major role obligations at
work, school, or home, continued drinking even in
situations where it is physically hazardous, recurrent
alcohol–related legal problems and continued drinking
despite persistent or recurrent social or interpersonal
problems it may cause.
21

Abuse and Alcoholism.
ORAL HEALTH
• Periodontal Disease
• Dental Caries
• Precancerous Lesions.
• Negatively Effects Blood
Clotting Factors.
GENERAL HEALTH
• Cirrhosis of Liver
• Hypertension
• CVD
• Digestive problems.
• Depression
• Anxiety
22
• A systematic review (2014) reported that episodic and
chronic heavy drinking do not provide any beneficial
effect on IHD.
23
Michael Roerecke and Jürgen Rehm . Alcohol consumption, drinking
patterns, and ischemic heart disease: a narrative review of meta-analyses
and a systematic review and meta-analysis of the impact of heavy
drinking occasions on risk for moderate drinkers. BMC
Medicine.201412:182
• Nutritional deficiencies associated with heavy drinking can
lower the body’s natural ability to use antioxidants to
prevent the formation of cancer.
24
The Oral Cancer Foundation. The Alcohol Connection. Accessed Jan 19,
2018.
DIET
• Unhealthy diets are those that have increased fat, sugar and
sodium and are low in the intake of fruit and vegetables.
• A statement by AHA reports a strong evidence supporting
the association of added sugars with increased
cardiovascular disease risk through increased energy
intake, increased adiposity, and dyslipidemia.
25
Miriam B. Vos et al. Added Sugars and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in
Children: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart
Association. 2017;135:e1017-e1034
• Eating Large Amounts Of Processed Or Fast Food
• Eating Larger Portions
• Sugary Drinks
• Carbohydrates
26
ORAL HEALTH
• Dental caries
• Periodontal disease
GENERAL HEALTH
• Obesity
• Cancer
• CVD
• Diabetes
• Hypertension
27
• A study (2011) reported that overweight students, the
frequent consumption of fatty foods and infrequent
consumption of vegetables were associated with an
increased risk of periodontitis.
• In underweight and normal-weight students, eating habits
had little effect on the periodontal condition.
28
Takaaki Tomofuji et al. Relationships Between Eating Habits and Periodontal
Condition in University Students. J Periodontol
2011;82(12):1642-1649
• Fat – Body require right kind of fat, mainly
monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids and very
limited amounts of saturated fats.
• Too much saturated fat may elevate blood cholesterol
thereby increasing the risk for CVDs as well as some
cancers.
29
• A study (2001) reported that a reduction or modification of
dietary fat intake results in reductions in cardiovascular
events.

Hooper Lee, Summerbell Carolyn D, Higgins Julian P T, Thompson Rachel
L, Capps Nigel E, SmithGeorge Davey et al. Dietary fat intake and
prevention of cardiovascular disease: systematic review BMJ 2001; 322 :757
SUGAR
• There is convincing evidence, collectively from human
intervention studies, epidemiological studies, animal
studies and experimental studies, for an association
between the amount and frequency of free sugars intake
and dental caries.
31
• Body uses carbohydrates to make glucose.
• Glucose is converted from glycogen stored in the liver and
muscles.
• When released into the bloodstream, it provides energy for
the cells.
• Insulin from the pancreas helps control the amount of
glucose in the body.
32
• More glucose in the body, the more insulin is released into
the bloodstream.
• A consistently elevated glucose level puts individuals at
risk for insulin resistant type 2 diabetes and CVD.
33
American Nutrition Association. Nutrition Digest. 2010;36(4).
STRESS/CONTROL
• Depression is a highly prevalent risk factor for incident
coronary heart disease (CHD) and for cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality in patients with established CHD.
• The link between psychologic stress and atherosclerosis
may be both direct, via damage to the inner layer of the
artery.
34
ORAL HEALTH
• Poor Oral Hygiene
• Periodontal Disease
• Dental Caries
• Reduced Salivary Flow
• Bruxism
• ANUG
• Reduced Immune Response
35
36
HYGIENE
• Oral biofilm begins with the formation of the pellicle and
ends with the complex formation of mature biofilm.
• Study reports that host response to pathogenic organisms
contained in oral biofilm may be a risk factor for the four
major NCDs, cancer, CVDs, respiratory diseases and
diabetes
37
National Institute Of Dental And Craniofacial Research. Part Three:
What Is The Relationship Between Oral Health And General Well-
being? Accessed Jan 25, 2018.
38
• Lack of oral hygiene encourages bacterial build-up and
biofilm plaque formation, and can also increase certain
species of pathogenic bacteria associated with more severe
forms of periodontal diseases.
American Academy of Periodontology statement on Risk Assessment. J
Periodontol. 2008;2:202.
39
• Further poor OH increases the risk of periodontitis by
approximately two- to five-fold compared with good OH.
Oral care habits, including regular brushing and regular
dental visits can decrease the risk of periodontitis.
Lertpimonchai A et al. The association between oral hygiene and
periodontitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Int Dent J.2017; 67: 332–343
• Poor oral hygiene has been recognized as a possible risk
factor for oral and pharyngeal cancer.
• Study (2013) reported that inadequate oral health is
correlated with oral human papillomavirus (HPV)
infection.
• Findings showed HPV infection was 55% higher among
those self-reporting poor to fair oral health.

• Inflammatory mediators, the cytokines interleukin-1 beta
(IL-1), interleukin-6 beta (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor
(TNF), are produced by a broad range of cells and can
enter circulating blood, attach to the atheromatous plaque
in the arteries, and be a factor in clot formation.

Leishman SJ, Do HL, Ford PJ. Cardiovascular Disease And The Role
Of Oral Bacteria. J Oral Microbiol. 2010; 2:10.
• Protective mechanisms of the lungs usually prevent
colonization of inhaled oral pathogens.
• Two most common types of pneumonia are community-
acquired pneumonia (CAP) and nosocomial, also known
as hospital-acquired pneumonia.
42
• COPD is a pulmonary disease affecting airflow.
• People with COPD often have compromised protective
systems in their lungs making it difficult to eliminate
inhaled oral pathogens.

disease. N Engl J Med 2002;346:988-994.
PHYSICAL EXCERSISE
44
• Physical activity has shown to have a protective relationship
with several chronic diseases.
Mohammad S et al. Increased physical activity reduces prevalence of
periodontitis. Journal of Dentistry. 2005;33,(9): 703-710
45
• A systematic review (2010) reported a positive association
for obesity in the development of periodontal disease.
• There was a greater mean clinical attachment loss among
obese individuals, a higher mean body mass index (BMI)
among periodontal patients, and a trend of increasing odds
of prevalent periodontal disease with increasing BMI.*

Periodontal Disease and Obesity: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J
Periodontol.2010;81(12):1708-1724
INJURIES
• Facial injury is most prevalent among young men from
socially deprived areas and the involvement of alcohol
serves to significantly widen the inequalities gap in this
group of patients.
• Facial trauma in females has a very strong association with
domestic abuse and alcohol consumption by the
perpetrator in particular is often a factor in these cases
46
Conway DI, McMahon AD,, Graham L et al. The Scar on the Face of
Scotland: Deprivation and Alcohol Related Facial Injuries in Scotland.
Journal of Trauma. 2010;68:644–649.
• It has now become clear that the causative or risk factors
in oral disease are often the same as those implicated in the
major general diseases.

CONCLUSION
• For the most part, dental health promotion has been
isolated from other health promotion initiatives.
• The dental profession needs to adopt an integrated
common risk factor approach with groups concerned about
reducing NCDs.
53
• As Dental Public health professionals, we are in a position
to couple with community stakeholders to address
modifiable behavioral risk factors with appropriate health
promotion information.
• Taking this combined approach can greatly reduce the
morbidity and mortality from chronic diseases and
decrease the incidence of oral diseases.
54

EXERCISE
• Which type of research study is the Framingham Heart
Study?
• Which type of prevention is directed at elimination of
emergence of risk factors?
• Which acute respiratory disease is associated with the
inhalation of oral pathogens?

Editor's Notes

  • #9: Until the 1950s, epidemiologic research concentrated on the eradication of infectious diseases. Mid twentieth century, with the emergence and utilization of vaccines and antibiotics, infectious diseases came under control and were replaced by an upsurge in chronic and degenerative diseases. Researchers were discovering a substantial increase in the number of men diagnosed with cardiovascular disease (CVD). This upsurge shifted the focus of epidemiologic studies to the little known etiologic factors related to emerging chronic and degenerative diseases. One of the most famous studies of the time, the Framingham Heart Study, was a longitudinal cohort study undertaken in Framingham, MA. It began in 1948 and continues today. This unique study examined the health determinants, also known as the risk factors, associated with chronic disease.
