Periodontal disease is an inflammatory disease caused by pathogenic oral microorganisms that leads to the destruction of alveolar bone and connective tissues around the teeth. Although many studies have shown that periodontal disease is a risk factor for systemic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, the relationship between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and periodontal disease has not yet been clarified. Thus, the purpose of this review was to reveal the relationship between NAFLD and periodontal disease based on epidemiological studies, basic research, and immunology. Many cross-sectional and prospective epidemiological studies have indicated that periodontal disease is a risk factor for NAFLD. An in vivo animal model revealed that infection with periodontopathic bacteria accelerates the progression of NAFLD accompanied by enhanced steatosis. Moreover, the detection of periodontopathic bacteria in the liver may demonstrate that the bacteria have a direct impact on NAFLD. Furthermore, Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide induces inflammation and accumulation of intracellular lipids in hepatocytes. Th17 may be a key molecule for explaining the relationship between periodontal disease and NAFLD. In this review, we attempted to establish that oral health is essential for systemic health, especially in patients with NAFLD.

Background: Prior studies have shown the association between periodontal disease, lacunar strokes and cognitive impairment. Using the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) cohort study we investigated the relationship between periodontal disease (PD) and the development of MRI verified small vessel disease. Methods: Using the ARIC database data we extracted data for 1143 (mean age 77 years, 76% white, 24% African-American and 45% male) participants assessed for PD (N=800) versus periodontal health (N=343). These participants were assessed for small vessel disease on 3T MRI as measured by the log of white matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV). WMHV were derived from a semiautomated segmentation of FLAIR images. Student t-test was then used to evaluate the relationship between small vessel disease as the log of WMHV in subjects with PD or periodontal health. Based on WMHV the patients were grouped into quartiles and the association of PD with WMHV were tested using the group in periodontal health and lowest quartile of WMHV as the reference groups. Multinomial logistic regression was used to compute crude and adjusted odds ratio (OR) for the higher quartiles of WMHV compared to the reference quartile. Results: There was a significant increase in the presence of small vessel disease measured as log WMHV in the PD cohort as compared to periodontal health cohort with p= 0.023 on Independent Sample t-est. Based on WMHV the subjects were grouped into quartiles 0-6.41, >6.41-11.56, >11.56-21.36 and >21.36 cu mm3). PD was associated with only the highest quartile of WMHV on univariate (crude OR 1.77, 95% CI 1.23-2.56) and multivariable (adjusted OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.06-2.44) analyses. The later was adjusted for age, race, gender, hypertension, diabetes and smoking. Conclusion: Based on this prospective cohort there is data to suggest that PD may be associated with cerebral small vessel disease. Maintaining proper dental health may decrease future risk for the associated lacunar strokes and vascular cognitive impairment.

Introduction: The association between periodontal disease and stress has been questioned for a almost a century, however, it still represents an unexplored field of research with several orphaned questions of conclusive answers. Objective: To evaluate the relationship between periodontal disease and stress. Methodology: Searches were performed with descriptors related to periodontal diseases and psychological factors in the following databases: Pubmed, Embase, Lilacs. Were identified and included studies that deal with the relationship between stress and periodontal disease and /or that emphasize the role of this psychosocial factor in the progression of periodontal disease. Conclusion: Most studies have shown a positive relationship between periodontal disease and stress, however, further research needs to be developed to confirm stress as a risk factor for periodontal disease
