Being old is a biologic process that can not be avoided, where degeneration occurs inmany ways, which finally decreases the function. These cause aging people prone tovarious diseases; including periodontal disease. Prevalence and severity of periodontaldiseases vary in world population. These differences seem to be related with age, sex,socioeconomic, education, and also ethnic and geography. This study was aimed toinvestigate the periodontal tissue of aging Buginese and Mandarnese. Total samples are390 persons (195 Buginese dan 195 Mandarnese). The condition of periodontal tissuewere checked using CPITN from WHO. Of 195 samples, 88 samples of Buginese and 55samples of Mandarnese were edentulous. The result showed periodontal disease ofBuginese were bleeding 2.8%, tartar 39.25%, pocket of 4-5 mm depth, 50.47%, andpocket of 6 mm depth, 7.48%. Periodontal disease of Mandarnese ethnic were bleeding2.14%, tartar 53.57%, pocket of 4-5 mm depth 21.43%, and pocket of 6 mm depth22.86%. Therefore, the need for periodontal treatment for aging Buginese were brushingteeth instruct 100%, prophylaxis 97.19%, and restorative 7.46%. Aging Mandarnese;were brushing teeth instruction 100%, prophylaxis 97.85%, and restorative 22.86%.

Abstract Periodontal disease (PD) is the second most common disease affecting dogs in UK veterinary practices. Veterinary and human literature suggests that periodontal disease may be associated with bacteraemia and a chronic, systemic release of inflammatory mediators which produce direct or immune-mediated changes elsewhere in the body. Thirty canine periodontal patient’s electronic medical histories were analysed for comorbidities. The findings were analysed overall to identify any possible associations. Seventy three percent of these dogs had comorbidities, most commonly haematopoietic, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal and hepatic systems were involved. The most prevalent comorbidities were: high liver enzymes, heart murmur, mitral valve disease, and monocytosis. Other interesting comorbidities were: endocarditis, neutrophilia, submandibular lymph node enlargement and arthritis. Periodontal disease patients had a higher prevalence of disease when compared to the disease prevalence data for UK pet dogs in general. Mitral valve disease was over 17 times more likely in the periodontal disease patients. Comorbidity disease prevalence also increased with more severe periodontal disease stages. This study supports an association between periodontal disease and systemic diseases in the dog. Further studies should focus on confirming a cause and effect relationship. Until then, these data may be useful for veterinarians to examine periodontal patients for concurrent diseases and can be used as a tool to promote dental disease prevention to pet owners.
