It can be hypothesized that an association exists between vasculogenic ED and CP in young males. However, a large-scale study with confounder analysis and a longitudinal follow-up is warranted.

The data from this study support the proposed link between periodontitis and cerebrovascular accident in the Indian population. However, further studies are necessary to verify and quantify the role of oral infections and genetic factors in the process of atherosclerosis.

The present study strengthens the hypothesis that chronic periodontitis may lead to anemia and provides evidence that non-surgical periodontal therapy can improve the anemic status of patients with chronic periodontitis with greater improvement in females.

Within the limits of the present study, the difference in plasma PTX3 levels between groups 2 and 3 was not found to be statistically significant (P > 0.05). However, as PTX3 values correlated positively with periodontal parameters, this model could contribute to identifying individuals with periodontitis at high risk of CKD. Thus, periodontal disease could serve as a risk factor for developing CKD. Further large-scale studies nullifying the confounders for CKD are warranted to confirm positive results.

A holistic approach toward the control of periodontal disease should include antiplaque and anticalculus agents. The results are conclusive that the components orthophosphate, pyrophosphate, and pyrophosphatase present in saliva have a very significant role to play in formation and inhibition of calculus. This study reinforces the idea of using pyrophosphate and newer bisphosphonates as potential anticalculus agents.
