Association between oral health and thyroid disorders: A population-based cross-sectional study.

Our study demonstrated that good oral health-related behavior was associated with more frequent thyroid disease history. High CPI showed a significant association with TFT abnormalities; however, the significance of this association became lower when other variables such as age and sex were adjusted. Further studies will be needed to determine how the control of oral health-related conditions actually has a causal relationship with thyroid disease/dysfunction through prospective cohort studies.
