Abstract

Background: Dental caries is the most common problem of the stomatognathic system. Formation of the dental plaque, diet related factors, and oral hygiene are presumed to be major etiological factors. The relationship between some systemic diseases and A-B-O blood group is a well-documented fact. The Aim: This study was to investigate the relation between A-B-O blood group and the prevalence of dental caries.

Materials and Methods: A total of 65 dental students participated in the study aged between 19-21 years. The participants were attended to the medical physiology laboratory/Faculty of Dentistry/University of Kufa. They were randomly selected for the study. Dental caries in the study was scored by using the Decay, Missing, and Filled Teeth (DMFT) score index according to WHO criteria.

Results: Blood group (B) was found to be more prevalent among the subjects and (B) blood group patients had the highest mean DMFT score and blood group (AB) the lowest among. The results among all groups were not statistically significant.

Conclusion: In spite of the study limitations, it could be concluded that: higher percentage of A-B-O blood groups have dental caries, but the difference was calculated as a statistically non-significant.

Furthermore, studies were needed to be conducted on a larger population, in order to derive any conclusive results on whether the A-B-O blood group system has any influence on the prevalence of dental caries or non.
