| More Details: | Periodontitis, with a high prevalence in the whole population, is the main cause of tooth loss. Some studies have revealed that sleep duration may be related to periodontitis, however, the opinions are not consistent. This meta-analysis was carried out to study the potential relationship between sleep duration and periodontitis. A search of relevant articles was conducted on Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Papers published until the end of November 2022 reporting associations between sleep duration and periodontitis were considered. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated to assess the association. Software STATA 14.0 was employed to conduct this analysis. A total of 11 cross-sectional studies were included. Our study showed neither short sleep duration (SSD) nor long sleep duration (LSD) were associated with periodontitis (SSD: OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.83, 1.29; LSD: OR = 1.12, 95% CI: 0.94, 1.23), while higher prevalence was observed when sleep duration ≤5 h (OR = 1.41, 95% CI: 1.33, 1.51). In addition, both SSD and LSD were not associated with severe periodontitis (SSD: OR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.75, 1.16; LSD: OR = 1.19, 95% CI: 0.80, 1.76). In conclusion, the present review indicated that too little sleep duration (≤5 h) significantly increased the risk of periodontitis. However, the evidence is limited due to cross-sectional design of most studies, Hence longitudinal studies should be conducted to support this finding. |
