The Effect of Body Mass Index on Taste Perception,Salivary Hormones and Oral Health Status

April 22, 2025 updated by: Basma abdulstar abdullah, Al-Mustansiriyah University

Taste Perception,Oral Health Status and Selectied Salivary Hormones in Relation to Body Mass Index Among Agroup of Iraqi Adolescent Girls.

the goal of the study is to test the effect of body mass index on adolesent Iraqi student girls by measuring salivary hormones (ghrelin,leptin,resistin)and measuring oral health by plague index score() and taste perception score () 90 female subject will be enrolled in this study between 16-17 years old,30 subjects with normal body weight ,30 subject overweight ,and 30 subject with obeiece group catogerize by body mass index according to age.

the methed of the study is by taking Saliva sample from the subject , taste perception score and oral health measure.
