[The effect of hormones on the periodontal condition--clinical studies on 300 female patients].
In this study 300 women (100 pregnant women, 100 women taking contraceptives and 100 women without contraceptive medication) were examined, recording the periodontal condition (using a computer-orientated chart) and the periodontal index according to Kötzschke. The values for the total index and the superficial and deep components of the index according to Kötzschke, the pocket depth and the degree of tooth mobility (determined for each tooth) were significantly higher in women under contraceptive medication than in the control subjects.
