Background: Periodontal disease is an inflammatory condition that irreversibly destroys the tissues that support the tooth, the main characteristics of this disease being probing depth, inflammation, edema and erythema. Objective: Determine the association of periodontal disease with risk factors in 15-year-old adolescents from an educational institution. Methods and Materials: The study was observational, descriptive, retrospective and cross-sectional based on the records of the database of the epidemiological oral health survey of 2018, with a sample of 29 15-year-old schoolchildren enrolled in the 2018 academic year. The variables were periodontal disease, depth to probing, gingival bleeding, sex, frequency of brushing, frequency of visits to the dentist, frequency of tobacco consumption, and frequency of alcohol consumption. Excel version 10 was used to manage the data and it was exported to Stata version 15 where the statistical tests were performed. Results: The frequency of brushing less than twice a day and the consumption of tobacco would behave as factors that increase the possibility of the development of periodontal disease with RP: 4,684, IC 95% (0,406 - 54,002) y RP: 1,468, IC 95% (0,489 – 4,412), respectively; however, the values obtained are not statistically significant (p> 0.05). Conclusion: There is an association of periodontal disease with both brushing less than twice a day and tobacco use in 15-year-old adolescents from an educational institution.
