Abstract

Background. Gingival bleeding is an objective sign of inflammation in the gingival connective tissue. Bleeding occurs because of frequent micro ulcerations in the epithelium bordering the soft-tissue wall of a periodontal pocket. Purpose. The aim of this study was to ident~fj; individuals exhibiting an exaggerated inflammatory response based on gender, age and socioeconomic factors. Met/wd. A cross sectional study was conducted at the dental section of public health service on Taman, Sidoarjo in a month period. This study was performed on a group of 100 patients, who were periodontally evaluated. The periodontal variable studied was the papillary bleeding index (PBI). A periodontal probe is inserted into the gingival sulcus at the base of the papilla on the mesial aspect, and then moved coronally to the tip. The examined teeth were 11, 16, 26, 31, 36, and 41. It's correlation with other demographic variables were also evaluated too. Results. The results suggest that PBI score among those patients were very good. Gingival injlammation was associated with PBI, where men had higher score compared to women (0.25 to 0.085). PBI score decreased along with higher education. Meanwhile the highest mean of PBI score (0.28) was found at 41-50 years old age group. Conclusion. The examined patients in this study had a very good PBI score mean «1.3). PBI score was related to risk assessment, including gender, age, and socioeconomic.
