Borderline significant associations were shown between educational level and smoking status with BOP or the PD mean, as subjects with an educational level of university or above had a borderline significantly lower BOP (5.61%) and lower PD mean (0.13 mm) than subjects with an educational level of high school ( p = 0.05 and p = 0.06, respectively).
