abstract = {A cross-sectional study was performed with 251 individuals,
consisting of 127 Germans, 68 migrants from Turkey, and 56
resettlers (migrants from the former Soviet Union with
German ancestors) to compare periodontal health status, with
a special focus on associations with lifestyle and
anthropometric factors, and use of dental health services.
Maximal pocket depth was used as a clinical surrogate marker
for periodontitis. Other variables were obtained by
questionnaires administered by a Turkish or Russian
interpreter. The age- and sex-adjusted prevalence of
periodontitis was significantly higher in Turks (odds ratio
(OR) 2.84, $95\%$ CI = 1.53-5.26) and slightly higher in
resettlers (OR = 1.33, $95\%$ CI = 0.71-2.49). These
differences are partly explained by a differential
distribution of known risk factors for periodontitis. A full
model showed a higher prevalence of maximal pocket depth
above 5 mm in Turks (OR = 1.97, $95\%$ CI = 0.99-3.92). Use
of oral health services was significantly lower in the two
migrant groups. Individuals who reported regular visits to a
dentist had significantly less periodontitis, independent of
migrant status. A reasonable conclusion is that, since oral
health causes major chronic diseases and has a major effect
on total health system expenditures, public health efforts
both generally and specifically focused on migrant groups
are warranted.},
