Abstract

Dental caries is one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide and is a complex condition. Objective: To assess the prevalence of dental caries in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonology disease patient. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional research study design was used to assess the prevalence of dental caries among COPD. The population was COPD patients. The population is targeted through purposive sampling technique. The tool which was used to assess the prevalence of dental caries among COPD patients was modified, translated and adopted. Results: The study results shows that Participants with the age group 30-40 years were 63(36.8%), and with the age group 51-60 were 59(34.5%) majority were male 118(69.0%) and have a history of tooth extraction 100(58.5%), similarly majority have dental crown 125(73.1%) and have Periodontitis which were 103(60.2%). Conclusions: The study results showed that to focus on the oral care of the COPD patients because it led toward the further complications and help in the progression of the disease. We have to educate the patient regarding their oral care to prevent complications and dental caries
