Abstract

Background

Periodontal disease is a chronic destructive disease which occurs in adults, young people, and children. Periodontal disease and periodontal pathogens have been associated with several systemic diseases and more recently, several studies have suggested the relationship between periodontal disease and cancer. Studies with adjustment for the effect of smoking exposure, have found significant positive associations with different cancer sites. This review has outlined recent epidemiologic researches pointing to a possible role for tooth loss and periodontal disease in carcinogenesis.

Methods

In this review, articles were selected from PubMed between1995 and June 2010 including human. Amongst 5,984 articles identified from the electronic search, 17 articles were selected for a full-text reading based on the inclusion and the exclusion criteria.

Results

Nine out of 10 case-control studies reported a significant increase in the risk of oral cancer in patients with periodontitis and one with no significant association. Among 6 studies examining esophageal cancer and periodontal disease, 5 studies found a significant association between them and one study failed to find a significant increased risk of cancer. Also amongst 5 studies which focused on upper gastrointestinal, gastric cancer, and periodontal disease, 4 studies found an increased risk of cancer while one study did not report any relationship. In lung cancer evaluations, 3 out of 4 studies showed some levels of association between lung cancer and periodontal disease but after adjustment for smoking, no relationship were found. Three cohort studies have evaluated overall cancer rates in periodontal patients; two of them found small but significant association between cancers and periodontal disease.

Conclusion

The results indicate that there is a possible link between cancer and severe periodontal disease after adjustment for smoking and drinking habits.

<title>Background</title>
<p>Periodontal disease is a chronic destructive disease which occurs in adults, young people, and children. Periodontal disease and periodontal pathogens have been associated with several systemic diseases and more recently, several studies have suggested the relationship between periodontal disease and cancer. Studies with adjustment for the effect of smoking exposure, have found significant positive associations with different cancer sites. This review has outlined recent epidemiologic researches pointing to a possible role for tooth loss and periodontal disease in carcinogenesis.</p>

<title>Introduction</title>
<p>Periodontal disease is a chronic destructive disease, which occurs in adults, young people and children [
<xref rid="b1-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. Periodontal pathogens which are found in the dental biofilm cause gingival inflammation (gingivitis). Periodontitis occurs when periodontal tissue destruction and alveolar bone loss happen [
<xref rid="b2-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
,
<xref rid="b3-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
]. Prevalence of the periodontitis depends on the geographic area and characteristics of people [
<xref rid="b1-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
,
<xref rid="b2-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
]. The total prevalence of severe periodontitis ranges from 10 to 15 percent and most of them are due to mild periodontal disease like gingivitis [
<xref rid="b2-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
,
<xref rid="b4-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
]. There are many risk factors for periodontal like gender, [
<xref rid="b2-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
] tobacco, diabetes, nutrition [
<xref rid="b4-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
], Body Mass Index (BMI) [
<xref rid="b5-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
], socioeconomic status, and access to dental care [
<xref rid="b1-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
].</p>
<p>Infections caused by periodontal pathogens like Porphyromonas gingivalis, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythensis are contributed for periodontitis [
<xref rid="b4-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>

<xref rid="b6-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
,
<xref rid="b7-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
].</p>
<p>By the way, it seems that some systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease [
<xref rid="b8-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
], diabetes mellitus [
<xref rid="b9-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
], preterm birth [
<xref rid="b10-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
], osteoporosis [
<xref rid="b11-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
,
<xref rid="b12-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
], respiratory disease [
<xref rid="b13-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
], and systemic infections are related to periodontal status [
<xref rid="b14-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
,
<xref rid="b15-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
]. Recently, some studies have reported an association between oral cancers[
<xref rid="b16-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
-
<xref rid="b18-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
], cancer of upper gastrointestinal system[
<xref rid="b19-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>

,
<xref rid="b21-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
].The purpose of this paper is to review the studies which reported an association between tooth loss and periodontal disease as a risk factor for cancer in human, independent of other known risk factors.</p>

<sec sec-type="materials|methods">
<title>Materials and Methods</title>
<p>To review the association between periodontal disease and cancer, five steps were undertaken: An electronic search was performed using Medline, PubMed from1995 to June 2010.</p>
<p>
<bold>Step1</bold>
</p>
<p>The appropriate terms were extracted from articles and books. These terms were as follows:</p>
<p>1. Periodontal disease and cancer 2. Periodontal disease and oral cancer 3. Periodontal disease and esophageal cancer 4. Periodontal disease and lung cancer 5. Periodontal disease and gastric cancer 6. Periodontal disease and upper gastrointestinal cancer</p>
<p>
<bold>Step2</bold>
</p>
<p>The terms above were searched separately and resulted in 5984 articles for periodontal disease and cancer terms, 2918 articles for periodontal disease and oral cancer terms, 34 articles for periodontal disease and esophageal cancer terms, 144 articles for periodontal disease and lung cancer terms, 51 articles for periodontal disease and gastric cancer terms and 16 articles for periodontal disease and upper gastrointestinal cancer.</p>
<p>
<bold>Step3</bold>
</p>
<p>The titles of articles were reviewed and the appropriate ones were selected. In this step 115 articles were selected.</p>
<p>
<bold>Step4</bold>
</p>
<p>Abstracts were reviewed and selecting the articles was based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. In this step 17 articles were selected. Inclusive criteria: All articles which directly evaluated the relation between periodontal disease and cancer.</p>
<p>Exclusion Criteria: Studies which did not directly evaluate the relation between periodontal disease and cancer. Also Studies that were in the form of case series and case reports and studies with fewer than 100 patients and finally studies which were not adjusted for smoking and drinking habits.</p>
<p>
<bold>Step 5</bold>
</p>
<p>Reviewing of full text of the 17 selected articles and extracting relevant information. To categorize data, the included studies were ranked according to their design and sample size. Using these criteria, scientific validation was determined as follows:</p>
<p>• Scientifically and Clinically Validated (SCV): Systematic reviews of RCTs (Randomized clinical trials) or two or more RCTs + ≥ 100 patients or one RCT and two or more prospective studies + ≥150 patients.</p>
<list list-type="bullet">
<list-item>
<p>Clinically Well Documented (CWD): One RCT and two or more prospective studies + ≥40 patients or no RCTs but at least three prospective studies + ≥60 patients or no RCTs but two or fewer prospective studies + ≥100 patients.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>Clinically Documented (CD): No RCTs, at least two prospective + any retrospective studies + ≤ 40 patients- or no RCTs, retrospective studies + ≥ 60 patients.</p>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<p>Clinically Insufficiently Documented (CID): None of the above, expert opinion only, case report only [

<p>
<bold>Literature Review</bold>
</p>
<p>The association between cancer, tooth loss, and periodontal disease has been evaluated by several studies [
<xref rid="b1-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. Some found a significant increase in oral cancer risk in patients with periodontitis; while others reported tobacco and alcohol are the main risk factor in oral cancer. The following section will review 17 studies on the risk of tooth loss and periodontal disease in cancer.</p>
<p>In 1995 Bundgaard et al. reported results of a study which compared questionnaires of 161 cases with intra-oral squamous cell carcinoma and 400 healthy cases in Denmark [
<xref rid="b23-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
]. The questionnaires included consumption of tobacco, alcohol, and periodontal status. After adjustment for duration and frequency of tobacco and alcohol consumption, subjects with 15 teeth and less showed a two-fold increase risk in cancer.</p>
<p>Dr Rezende designed a cross-sectional prospective study, comparing dental health and periodontal status (CPITN) of 50 untreated oral squamous cell carcinoma and 50 healthy subjects. After adjustment for age, sex, smoking and drinking habits; periodontal examination clarified that, 76% of subjects with cancer had periodontal pocket depths of 6 mm or greater but in the control group 10% of the subjects had periodontal packets [
<xref rid="b24-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
].</p>
<p>In 2001, Garrote compared oral hygiene, smoking, and drinking history of 200 oral cancer cases with 200 control subjects in Cuba. Poor oral Periodontal Disease and Tooth Loss as Risks for Cancer conditions (Silness and Loe plaque index more than 40%) and the number of missing teeth were 4.6 times more in oral cancer compared with control subjects. Positive smoking and drinking history also was 2.6 fold more in cancer cases [
<xref rid="b25-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
].</p>
<p>In another study, Guha et al. compared condition of mouth, toothbrush use, and daily mouthwash use in 924 head and neck cancer cases with 928 controls individuals. After sex, gender, alcohol, and smoking adjustment, the rate of poor oral hygiene was higher in test group compared to the control group. Also those who do not use toothbrush and daily mouthwash were more frequent in cancer cases. The results indicate that periodontal disease (which was indicated by a poor condition of mouth and missing teeth) and not using mouthwash may be independent causes of cancers of head, neck, and esophagus [
<xref rid="b26-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
].</p>
<p>In a study by Hiraki 5,240 cancer subjects and 10,480 healthy controls were examined from 2000 to 2005. Tooth loss was categorized into four groups as follow group 1: number of remaining teeth ≥21; group 2: with 9 to 20 teeth; group 3: with 1 to 8 teeth; and group 4: with no remaining teeth. Paired in sex, age, tobacco, and alcohol consumption; the fewer number of remaining teeth were associated with increased risk of head, neck, esophageal, and lung cancers [
<xref rid="b27-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
]. Marshall et al. examined relation between tobacco, alcohol, dental, dietary factors and oral cancer from 1975 to 1983. One control was matched to each of 290 oral cancers, with all information which was collected by interview. Loss of 11 or more teeth showed 2.7-fold increased risk of oral cancer after adjustment for alcohol and smoking [
<xref rid="b28-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
].</p>
<p>The department of nutrition in Harvard University School of Public Health designed a prospective study with postal questionnaires. After adjusting of age, gender, fruit and vegetable intake, smoking, and drinking habit; no significant increase in risk of oral cancer were found but poor condition of mouth and missing 16 or more teeth were associated with oral cancer after smoking and alcohol control [
<xref rid="b29-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
].</p>
<p>Rosenquist et al. analyzed oral status as risk factors for oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OOSCC) in Southern Sweden [
<xref rid="b29-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
]. This study was conducted in132 cases and 320 controls; examination had 2 parts: panoramic radiographs and a modified gingival bleeding index (GBI). According to the result of this study, poor oral hygiene and visible plaque have affected person's susceptibility for cancer, after adjustment for alcohol and smoking. Subjects, who had lost more than 20 teeth, had 3-fold increased risk for cancer [
<xref rid="b30-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
].</p>
<p>Tezel in 2007 published a study using pre-existing data from admitted patients between 1999 and 2005. Tezel compared 51 men with SCC of tongue with 54 healthy subjects. After adjustment for age, sex, and smoking; assessment of panoramic radiographs for measurement of alveolar bone loss revealed each millimetre of alveolar bone loss lead to 5.23-fold increase in the risk of tongue cancer [
<xref rid="b31-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>
].</p>
<p>Zheng et al. studied relationship between dentition status and the risk of oral cancer in Beijing, between 1989 and 1990. This study assessed questionnaires of 404 cases and controls who noted the number of their missing teeth [
<xref rid="b32-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
]. The result was categorized by gender. Any tooth loss with and without tooth replacement, caused 2-3 fold increase in the risk of oral cancer for men and a 5-8 fold increased risk for women. A positive relation was observed between tooth lost, smoking, and alcohol drinking with more than 15 times increased risk of oral cancer [
<xref rid="b32-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
].</p>
<p>Between 2003 and 2007, Abnet conducted a case-control study, examined the relation between tooth loss and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in Iran. They assessed 283 ESCC cases and 560 controls adjusted in age and gender, alcohol consumption, and smoking. Subjects with ESCC had significantly higher DMFT (decayed, missing, or filled teeth) and received less dental care compared with controls [
<xref rid="b33-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
].In another study, Abnet et al. categorized participants in a chemoprevention trial to three groups: 1.Subjects with tooth loss less than the median number of tooth lost for all subjects 2. Subjects with tooth loss greater than the median number of tooth lost for all subjects 3. Subjects with tooth loss equal to the median number of tooth lost for all subjects</p>
<p>According to this study,13% increased risk of total death was observed in subjects with greater than median number of tooth lost; 35% increased risk of upper gastrointestinal cancer death and 28% increased risk of heart disease death and no significantly increased risk of death from cancer in other sites. They also adjusted alcohol and smoking between three groups [
<xref rid="b34-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>
].</p>
<p>In the last study by Abnet et al. conducted in 49 esophageal SCC, 66 esophageal/gastric cardia adenocarcinoma, and 179 gastric non-cardia adenocarcinomas in1999. In subjects paired in age, sex, tobacco smoking results showed significantly increased risk for gastric non-cardia cancer. No statistically significant relations were found between tooth loss and esophageal SCC or esophageal/gastric cardia adenocarcinoma [
<xref rid="b35-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
].</p>
<p>In a case-control study Watabe et al. compared 242 cases with gastric cancer and 484 controls, after adjustment for smoking and drinking habits. According to this study, the loss of 10 teeth and more resulted in a 2-fold increased risk for gastric cancer [
<xref rid="b36-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
].</p>
<p>According to Tu et al. study the association between periodontal pathogens and lung cancer is controversial. In a recent study conducted in Scotland, after adjusted in age, gender, BMI, systolic blood pressure and father’s socioeconomic status in 12, 223 cases, no association was observed between tooth loss, with and without adjustment for baseline smoking status, and lung cancer [
<xref rid="b37-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
].</p>
<p>Michaud et al. selected 1043 subjects with colorectal cancer, 698 melanoma, 678 lung cancers, and 541 advanced prostate cancers. Significant association was observed between the periodontal disease, kidney, pancreas, and hematological cancers after adjustment for alcohol and smoking, while there was no association for lung cancer [
<xref rid="b38-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
].</p>
<p>Cabrera et al. studied the relation between tooth loss and cancer in 1462 women [
<xref rid="b39-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>
]. There was no significant association between tooth loss and cancer in this study after adjustment for alcohol and smoking. Also no association was reported between tooth loss and C-reactive protein in this study.</p>
<p>According to the above validation criteria, the level of evidence of the articles we reviewed about the association of periodontal disease and oral cancer as well as gastric cancer, lung cancer, upper GI, and esophageal cancer is placed in CWD. These data are summarized in

and
<xref ref-type="table" rid="t3-IJCP-05-189">3</xref>
. The association between oral cancer and tooth loss or periodontal disease has been evaluated in several studies. Among 10 studies, which focused on oral cancer and periodontal disease or missing teeth, nine case-control studies reported a significant increase in risk of oral cancer (odds ratio (OR) ranging from0.6 to 11.3) while one case found no significant association between them. All studies were adjusted for alcohol and smoking habits. These results indicated significant increase in oral cancer risk in patients with tooth loss or other parameters of periodontal disease.</p>
<p>Amongst 6 studies examining esophageal cancer and periodontal disease or tooth loss, 5 cases found a significant association (OR from 0.97 to 2.21), and one study failed to find a significant increase in cancer risk. This means that the evidence did not yet support a specific association between esophageal cancer, periodontal disease with overall poor oral condition (Silnss and Loe plaque index more than 40%), and increased number of missing teeth.</p>
<p>In review of upper gastrointestinal, gastric cancer, and periodontal disease or tooth loss studies, 4 studies found an increased risk of cancer (OR ranging from 1.46 to 2.79), and one study did not find any relationship. Again the evidence did not yet support a specific association between upper gastrointestinal, gastric cancer, and periodontal diseases. In lung cancer evaluations, three out of four studies showed some levels of association between lung cancer and periodontal disease or tooth loss (OR ranged from 1.23 to 2.43) but the relation did not remain after adjustment for smoking, suggesting that smoking is a very important interfering factor, so more studies are needed to clarify this association.</p>
<p>Three cohort studies have evaluated overall cancer rates in periodontal patients indicating two of them found small but significant association between them (OR ranged 0.9 to 2.26). These suggest that while missing teeth may not be an independent risk factor for overall cancer risk, periodontal disease may play a significant role.</p>

<title>Discussion</title>
<p>There are some interfering factors in the assessment of relation between periodontal diseases and cancer [
<xref rid="b33-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
]. The studies have used different criteria in the measurement of periodontal disease. Some used tooth loss as a marker and others used patient history, clinical, and radiographic findings as criteria for periodontal patients [
<xref rid="b28-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
]. It should be noted that teeth can be lost due to caries, trauma, or periodontal disease; so it is difficult to eliminate caries and trauma as confounding elements [
<xref rid="b25-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
].</p>
<p>On the other hand, some environmental factors also appeared to be confounding factor among these studies [
<xref rid="b17-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
]. Age, sex, gender, genetic, and socioeconomic status are considered as risk factors for both cancer and periodontal disease. In fact studies which are adjusted for these factors can be used for the assessment of periodontal disease as an independent risk factor of cancer [
<xref rid="b25-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
-
<xref rid="b27-IJCP-05-189" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
].</p>
<p>In summary, this article showed the possible link between periodontal disease and oral cancer. There is also correlation for esophageal and gastric cancer as well as overall cancer rates. According to this review, periodontal disease can be considered as a risk factor in cancer but additional studies are needed to clarify these suggested associations.</p>

<title>Conclusion</title>
<p>With limitation of this study, additional studies are needed to confirm periodontal disease as a risk factor for various types of cancer and support the possible association between periodontal disease and cancer rates. Consistent and standard criteria of periodontal disease (such as amount of alveolar bone loss) and consistent control of the interfering factors such as smoking and alcohol use will be helpful to identify a possible link between periodontal disease and cancer and it is important to confirm this association’s mechanism.</p>
