Associations between periodontal parameters and psychological scores were analyzed by linear and logistic mixed regression models considering psychological
parameters at baseline and the evolution of periodontal parameters between baseline and 6 months. All potential influencing variables were considered (age,
smoking, sex) in the mathematical model. Significant associations are in bold (P < 0.05). ΔPI, ΔBOP, ΔPD, ΔCAL represent the difference for mean PI BOP, PD,
and CAL between baseline and 6 months, respectively; ΔPD >3 mm, ΔPD >5 mm, ΔPD >7 mm represent the difference for number of sites with PD >3 mm, >5 mm,
