Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Periodontitis and Diabetes: Mechanistic Evidence of a Circular Relationship
This narrative review aimed to explore the underlying mechanisms that connect periodontitis to diabetes (and vice versa) and that influence disease susceptibility, progression and response to treatment. ABSTRACT The circular relationship between periodontitis and diabetes mellitus is one of the most established oral‐systemic links.

Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis—Mechanistic Evidence
Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis are linked via the two‐hit model whereby early periodontal inflammation can lead to autoantibody production capable of interacting with inflamed synovial tissues. Subsequent systemic inflammation can exacerbate the periodontal inflammatory response and bacterial dysbiosis leading to further autoantibody production

Periodontal diseases affect over a billion people worldwide, yet remain weakly integrated into global non‐communicable disease agendas. We propose reorienting periodontal care around three public health opportunities—upstream prevention, diagnosis fit for both clinical and population use, and value‐based treatment—prioritizing prevention, value, and ...
