Clinical Trial Summary

Currently the research issue in establishing the role of periodontal disease (PD) in coronary heart disease (CHD) risk is to define the pathways that lead to cause-effect relationship between PD and CHD. There is no consensus on definition of a periodontal disease case or the threshold level that may give clear indication for this relationship. Periodontal therapy has been used in different studies with the hope that a change in periodontal disease status may modify the factors associated with CHD risk. Many of these studies, on role of periodontal therapy in the reduction of CHD associated risk-factors, were based on small study samples, and very few studies were randomized controlled trials. So a need for large prospective studies is warranted in literature.----------- A single-blind parallel-arm randomized controlled clinical trial was designed to observe the influence of periodontal treatment on serum inflammatory mediators of hsC-reactive protein, white blood cells and fibrinogen in CHD patients.

Hypothesis: Periodontal therapy in CHD patients, by reducing periodontal inflammation, may decrease the host systemic inflammatory burden associated with atherogenic processes.
