Tooth loss can result in disruption of daily activities such as chewing disorders, causing emotional problems, loss of confidence. Tooth loss in the elderly is usually caused by periodontal disease which is influenced by several other factors. Objective: To analyze the relationship between individual characteristic factors (age and gender), behavior (smoking and oral hygiene/OHI-s) and systemic diseases (Diabetes Mellitus and Dementia) with the occurrence of tooth loss in the elderly as well as the most influential factors. Method: This study is a survey research with a cross sectional design. Sampling using purposive sampling techniques through inclusion criteria is limited to the age of 45-74 years and the elderly who are active in the National Health Insurance (JKN) prolanis program. The respondents of the study were 44 elderly people in Mangkubumi Village, Mangkubumi District, Tasikmalaya City. The affected variables were tooth loss disease, while the influence variables were age, gender, smoking, OHI-S, Diabetes Mellitus, and Dimensiona. Data analysis used spearman rank correlation test and multiple logistic regression. Research Results: The results of the spearman rank test analysis showed that the variables of age, smoking, OHI-S, and Diabetes Mellitus, were related to tooth loss (p-value < 0.25). The results of the analysis of multiple logistic regression variables of age (p-value 0.324), smoking (p-value 0.364), OHI-S (p-value 0.103), and Diabetes Mellitus (p-value 0.000). Conclusion: Systemic disease factors (Diabetes Mellitus) are the most influential factors in the occurrence of tooth loss in the elderly, so it is necessary to control Diabetes Mellitus disease.Downloads
