ARE ORAL HEALTH AND SYSTEMIC

DISEASES CONNECTED??

t is more than a century since a connection between the mouth and the rest

of the body first appeared in the medical literature. Recent evidence-based

literature again strongly suggest that oral health is indicative of systemic

health supporting the association between periodontal disease and systemic

conditions. This has led to the evolution of new branch in Periodontology

namely PerioMedicine. The nature of the association between the systemic

disease and periodontal disease is considered bidirectional. Periodontal

disease can be initiated or deteriorated by certain systemic diseases but can

also initiate or deteriorate certain systemic diseases. Periodontal diseases

can produce numerous changes in systemic health by changing the blood

chemistry with raised inflammatory mediators, proteins, lipids in serum.

Hyperlipidemia and thyroid disorders are linked with systemic inflammation.

Periodontitis has been found to release inflammatory cytokines to systemic

circulation. So, it could be related with these two systemic conditions. The

aim is determination of changes in periodontal status obtained by scaling and

root planning on serum lipid and thyroid profiles.
