Brief Summary: Our primary aim is to investigate the prevalence and severity of Periodonotal Disease PD in a population of obese patients

Our secondary objectives are to

Investigate inflammatory biomarkers that have been associated with PD in the saliva of obese patients

Investigate the association of FTO gene Obesity polymorphisms with the prevalence of PD in this population

Investigate and describe the subgingival microbial flora in obese patients with PD from subgingival dental plaque samples as well as the salivary samples
Detailed Description: Overall design and plan of the study This is a cross-sectional association study The study population will be recruited among individuals attending the UCLH Centre for Weight Loss Metabolic Endocrine Surgery UCLH bariatric clinic and have given written informed consent to the study

Experimental Design All individuals who consent to this study will receive as part of their routine care a medical examination where a series of parameters are recorded including age gender smoking status Bio-impedance for full body composition ethnicity and body mass index These data will be copied for this study A blood sample will also be collected for genetic analysis unless the patients have DNA already collected and it has been verified that the results are available In that case no venepuncture will be needed

All subjects will receive a basic periodontal examination BPE For individuals with signs of destructive periodontitis BPE scores 3-4 full mouth plaque and gingival bleeding scores will also be calculated In addition to that also a comprehensive full mouth periodontal probing depths assessment will be performed
