Abstract
We initiated to prepare the basic data that could help us to understand the characteristics of patients with physiological halitosis symptoms in Korea and aid in establishing the diagnosis and the prevention protocol for these symptoms.
We collected questionnaire and dietary analysis results from the data of 246 adult patients diagnosed with physiological halitosis symptoms, collected the data from the patients’ salivary measurements and the analysis data of patients’ tongue and throat management status. Using the SPSS (IBM SPSS™, Ver. 22.0) program, we performed a frequency analysis, calculating the correlation coefficient Phi with an independence test.
The mean age and one standard deviation of patients with physiological halitosis was 41.85±11.63 years. The proportion of women, the proportion of patients who replaced breakfast with fast food or skipped breakfast, with beverage drinking habits such as coffee, tea, or carbonated drink, with irregular or insufficient consumption of water, who recognized their own oral malodor, suffering anxiety or stress over oral malodor, with an introverted personality, with insufficient unstimulated salivation volume, with incorrect tongue management, and with postnasal drip or posterior tongue coating were all statistically analyzed to be significantly high (p < 0.05). As a result of the correlation analysis, the Phi values of the five pairs of the bivariate variables were from 0.203 to 0.394 (p < 0.05).
We could suggest the 10 potential common risk factors related to physiological halitosis symptom, and the five pairs of variables with Phi values could be judged to have a moderate correlation.
