dc.description.abstractObjective: Obesity is a global chronic disease that affects both developed and developing countries. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of morbid obesity and obesity on the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index and saliva values. Method: This study included 50 morbidly obese, 50 obese, and 50 control group patients aged 18-68 years. The DMFT index of the patients was determined through a clinical examination. The saliva kit was used to determine the saliva values [unstimulated saliva flow rate (USFR), stimulated saliva flow rate (SSFR), saliva viscosity (SV), saliva pH (SpH), and saliva buffering capacity (SBC)]. The patients were surveyed to learn about their oral health habits, nutritional habits, and socioeconomic status. Results: No significant difference was found in the number of decayed teeth, filled teeth, USFR, or SV between the groups (p > 0.05). The DMFT index, number of missing teeth, SSFR, SpH, and SBC all showed significant differences between the groups (p < 0.05). The significant variables associated with DMFT, according to the multiple linear regression model, were the frequency of dental visits (f3 = 0.365), age (f3 = 0.322), and SSFR (f3 = -0.256). Conclusion: Obese patients have a low saliva rate, low saliva pH, low buffering capacity, high DMFT index, and a high number of missing teeth.en_US
