“…Etymologically, the word "health" was reproduced from the Old English "hale" and means wholesome, sound, or well-being [1]. Although there is signiicant improvement in oral health in developed countries, oral disease still persists as a global problem, especially among underprivileged groups in both developing and developed countries [2].…”

Periodontitis is deined as an inlammatory disease of supporting tissues of teeth characterized by progressive destruction of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. Periodontal manifestations of these genetic disorders or syndromes, such as familial and cyclic neutropenias, granulomatous disease, agranulocytosis, Langerhans' cell disease, glycogen storage disease, hypophosphatasia, leucocyte adhesion deiciency, and Papillon-Lefèvre, Chédiak-Higashi, Cohen, Ehlers-Danlos, Marfan, Down, Haim-Munk, and Kindlers syndromes, imitate some types of periodontal diseases. Most of these syndromes have autosomal-recessive characterization and can be seen commonly in consanguineous marriages. Therefore, consanguineous marriages have generally been accepted as having important detrimental efects on ofspring. There is a lot of genetic research about consanguineous marriage and its detrimental efects on ofspring. Although consanguineous marriages are common in the world, the relationship with oral and periodontal diseases has not been thoroughly investigated. We do not have enough of an understanding of the efects of consanguineous marriage on oral and periodontal diseases. In this chapter, previous studies in the literature related to this subject will be investigated and evaluated, and then this research will be related to oral and periodontal diseases. Therefore, this chapter will guide further research. The aim of this chapter is to show the relation between consanguineous marriages and oral-periodontal diseases.

“…Genetic predisposition, lifestyle (smoking, stress, and oral hygiene), as well as socio-economic status, precede and modulate the development of the bacterial biofilm present in the gingival sulcus, which represents the main cause of gingivitis and periodontal disease (Mariotti and Arthur, 2015;Chen et al, 2005).…”

“…It appears that orange and green complexes are associated with long term gingivitis, which precedes the actual periodontal disease, while the red complex are the late colonizers of the plaque biofilm (Teles et al, 2013). A. actinomycetemcomitans has been found to be one of the first and most important etiological agents that invades the subgingival plaque and set up the environment for other bacterial species (Mariotti and Arthur, 2015).…”

Three bacterial species pertaining to the red complex (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythia) and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans were investigated in relation to the incidence and severity of periodontal disease. A total of 259 patients were included in this study, 179 being diagnosed with periodontal disease. The gingival crevicular fluid samples were obtained from periodontal pockets and the presence and levels of target bacteria were assessed following DNA extraction and real-time quantitative PCR.Our results account for significant positive associations between the number of bacterial species from the red complex coexisting within a patient and several clinical signs (gingival bleeding, inflammation and bone deterioration). A similar positive association was found between bacterial load of the red complex species and the clinical Case Type diagnostic of the periodontal disease, as well as the probing depth with the most evident results for T. denticola. In conclusion, our study, a first for the Romanian population, confirms previous results found elsewhere and finds a possible regional pathogenic specificity for T. denticola as a major factor for periodontitis severity.

Objectives Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality; periodontal disease (PD) affects up to 50% of the world's population. Observational evidence has demonstrated association between CVD and PD. Absent from the literature is a systematic review and meta‐analysis of longitudinal cohort studies quantifying CVD risk in PD populations compared to non‐PD populations. To examine the risk of incident CVD in people with PD in randomised controlled trials and longitudinal cohort studies. Material and Methods We searched Medline, EMBASE and Cochrane databases up to 9th Oct 2019 using keywords and MeSH headings using the following concepts: PD, CVD, longitudinal and RCT study design. CVD outcomes included but were not restricted to any CVD, myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke. Diagnosis method and severity of PD were measured either clinically or by self‐report. Studies comparing incident CVD in PD and non‐PD populations were included. Meta‐analysis and meta‐regression was performed to determine risk of CVD in PD populations and examine the effects of PD diagnosis method, PD severity, gender and study region. Results Thirty‐two longitudinal cohort studies were included after full text screening; 30 were eligible for meta‐analysis. The risk of CVD was significantly higher in PD compared to non‐PD (relative risk [RR]: 1.20, 95% CI: 1.14–1.26). CVD risk did not differ between clinical or self‐reported PD diagnosis (RR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.87–1.07,). CVD risk was higher in men (RR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.08–1.25) and severe PD (RR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.15–1.35). Among all types of CVD, the risk of stroke was highest (RR = 1.24; 95% CI:1.12–1.38), the risk of CHD was also increased (RR = 1.14; 95% CI:1.08–1.21). Conclusion This study demonstrated modest but consistently increased risk of CVD in PD populations. Higher CVD risk in men and people with severe PD suggests population‐targeted interventions could be beneficial.
