...Abstract |
Introduction:Periodontal
medicine is the emergence of a new branch of periodontology. Periodontal
medicine is a term used for different purposes in different parts of the
world. In certain countries, it relates to the study of the dynamic
relationship between periodontal diseases and systemic conditions, such
as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, preterm delivery
low-birth-weight babies, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, and disorders
of the respiratory tract. Such studies investigate the peripheral
impacts of periodontal inflammation on systemic health.
