The total population consisted of all visitors who had their teeth checked at the dental clinic, and the sample consisted of patients suffering from periodontitis. From the analysis of periodontal disease prevalence data based on gender, the highest prevalence was found in males (56.61%). It was concluded that periodontitis occurred among dental clinic visitors at the Kerambitan II Community Health Centre in Ta-banan from October 2024 to March 2025, with 189 sufferers, predominantly males at 56.61%.
