Burden of periodontal diseases in young adults.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the global burden of periodontal disease among young adults over the period from 1990 to 2019. The analysis considered various factors such as age, sex, country, and Socio-demographic Index (SDI). This study utilized GBD 2019 database to examine the trends in both incidence and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) rates of periodontal diseases among young adults from 1990 to 2019. The data was analyzed based on age-standardization rate. To quantify the temporal and geographic patterns we calculated the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) and its corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). The region with the highest age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized DALY rate was Western sub-Saharan Africa (ASIR: 3949.18, DALY
