The present study indicated that a good agreement existed between the percentage prevelance of the periodontal pathogens, in particular P. gingivalis, P. gingivalis fimA, P. intermedia, T. forsythia, P. nigrescens and C. rectus in the sub-gingival and atherosclerotic plaque samples suggesting that the micoorganisms in the subgingival plaque had significant chance of their presence in atherosclerotic plaque as well contributing to the progression of atherosclerosis and vice-versa.

Obesity is one of the systemic conditions which influences the onset and progression of periodontal disease. Several chronic diseases including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, liver disease and periodontal disease are associated with obesity. This association has been hypothesized to result from chronic systemic inflammation related to obesity, affecting the susceptibility to these diseases. The hyper oxidative and a modified inflammatory state and alteration in the subgingival microbiota, in obese individuals cause higher susceptibility to bacterial infection which influences the...
