The aim of the study was to evaluate if there were differences in oral findings between patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma and a control group of health people. At the oral evaluation, the following indexes were calculated: PSR, Periodontal Screening and Recording; PI, Plaque Control Record and DMFT, Decayed Missing Filled Teeth Index. Absence or presence of mouth breathing was also recorded. Linear regressions were calculated to compare the oral findings with gravity of allergic rhinitis, to asthma compensation and to asthma treatment.

| PSR - Periodontal Screening and Recording (Landry and Jean, 2002) | Scoring criteria:
| Baseline |
| PCR - Plaque Control Record (O' Leary et al., 1972) | % assessment of the amount of plaque on dental surfaces; it is detected on 4 surfaces: distal, mesial, vestibular, lingual / palatal. The number of sites with plaque is divided by the total number of sites available in the mouth and multiplied by 100. Results indicate the index as a percentage. | Baseline |
| DMFT - Decayed Missing Filled Teeth Index (WHO, 2013) | Sum of the decayed, missing, filled teeth. | Baseline |
