The Pathobiology of Periodontal Diseases May Affect Systemic Diseases: Inversion of a Paradigm
Abstract
A new paradigm for the pathobiology of periodontitis is presented, and the manner in which periodontitis may relate to susceptibility for certain systemic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and preterm labor is described. Periodontitis is caused by a small group of Gram‐negative bacteria present on the tooth root surfaces as biofilms. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and other substances gain access to the gingival tissues, initiate and perpetuate immunoinflammation, resulting in production of high levels of proinflammatory cytokines. These induce production of matrix metalloproteinases which destroy the connective tissues of the gingiva and periodontal ligament, and prostaglandins which mediate alveolar bone destruction. Periodontitis may enhance susceptibility to systemic diseases in several ways. LPS and viable Gram‐negative bacteria from the biofilms and proinflammatory cytokines from the inflamed periodontal tissues may enter the circulation in pathogenic quantities. In addition, periodontitis and certain systemic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, share risk factors including tobacco smoking, male gender, race/ethnicity, stress, and aging.

In the citing paper
“Periodontal disease shares many associative and causative links with systemic disease, and it increases susceptibility to systemic diseases via shared risk factors, such as by harboring pathogenic gram‐negative anaerobes in subgingival biofilms, and by fashioning the periodontium as a reservoir for pro‐inflammatory mediators.199”

In the citing paper
“Periodontal disease predisposes humans to cardiovascular pathologies, such as atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction, as a result of inducing increased levels of systemic pro‐inflammatory cytokines, inflammatory cells and infiltrates, and white blood cell counts.199”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
