AB  - BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the association 
      between the number of natural teeth and the total serum immunoglobulin E (IgE), 
      allergen-specific IgE against Dermatophagoides farina, allergen-specific IgE 
      against cockroaches, or allergen-specific IgE against dogs with nationally 
      representative data using the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination 
      Survey (KNHANES). METHODS: This study involved a cross-sectional analysis using 
      KNHANES data from 2010. A total of 1916 participants were eligible for this 
      study. Multiple regression analyses were used to evaluate the risk of tooth loss 
      in relation to IgE levels. The model was adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, 
      smoking habits, drinking habits, exercise habits, vitamin D levels, metabolic 
      syndrome, allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis, and tooth-brushing 
      frequency. RESULTS: The number of natural teeth of the first quartile to the 
      fourth quartile of total serum IgE were 25.9 +/- 0.2, 25.9 +/- 0.2, 25.1 +/- 0.2, and 
      25.4 +/- 0.2, respectively, showing an inverse association (P < 0.05). The number 
      of natural teeth of the first quartile to the fourth quartile of 
      allergen-specific IgE against Dermatophagoides farina and allergen-specific IgE 
      against dogs farina both showed an inverse association with statistical 
      significance (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: This study clearly showed the inverse 
      association between total serum IgE and number of natural teeth after 
      adjustments, especially regarding participants without systemic diseases, 
      including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, metabolic diseases, and obesity.
