A review of the influence of periodontal treatment in systemic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, 2019
The effects and consequences of periodontal diseases might not be confined to the oral cavity. A great body of evidence has arisen supporting the claim demonstrating an association with several systemic conditions and diseases.

Periodontal diseases

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2017
Periodontal diseases comprise a wide range of inflammatory conditions that affect the supporting structures of the teeth (the gingiva, bone and periodontal ligament), which could lead to tooth loss and contribute to systemic inflammation. Chronic periodontitis predominantly affects adults, but aggressive periodontitis may occasionally occur in children.

Periodontal Disease and Cardiovascular Disease

Journal of Periodontology, 1996
It is our central hypothesis that periodontal diseases, which are chronic Gramnegative infections, represent a previously unrecognized risk factor for atherosclerosis and thromboembolic events. Previous studies have demonstrated an association between periodontal disease severity and risk of coronary heart disease and stroke.

Periodontal Disease and Periodontal Tissue Regeneration

Current Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2010
Periodontal disease leads to destruction of the periodontium such as alveolar bone, cementum, the periodontal ligament, and gingiva. Effective treatment for periodontal tissue regeneration is important, because periodontal disease is related to several systemic diseases.

Systemic Effects of Periodontitis: Epidemiology of Periodontal Disease and Cardiovascular Disease

Journal of Periodontology, 2005
There have been 42 published studies describing associations between oral conditions and cardiovascular diseases. In the absence of randomized controlled trials, the 16 longitudinal studies represent the highest level of evidence available. However, two databases produced eight of the 16 studies.

Periodontal Disease

Topics in Companion Animal Medicine, 2008
Periodontal disease is the most commonly diagnosed problem in small animal veterinary medicine. In the vast majority of cases, however, there are little to no outward clinical signs of the disease process, and, therefore, therapy often comes very late in the disease course.

Infection and Periodontal Diseases

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989
Contemporary hypotheses that consider the severe forms of periodontal disease to be infections caused by site-specific microbes fail to satisfactorily explain the epidemiologic, anthropologic, and clinical features of periodontal diseases. The microbes that have been designated as periodontopathogens are commensal bacteria present in periodontal health

The Microbiology of Periodontal Disease

Dental Update, 1999
Periodontal diseases result from mixed bacterial infections, in which both host resistance barriers and bacterial interactions are important. Approximately ten bacterial species are strongly implicated with various forms of periodontal disease, although species that cannot yet be cultivated are likely also to be relevant.
