Result. statistical test result shows that t-value (6,793) < t-table (12,592) which means there is no relationship between BMI with OHI-S. The contingency coefficient test gives the result of C=0,177 which is belong to interval of 0.00< C < 0.25 identifying that the correlation between BMI and OHI-S is included in degree of weak association.
