NCT01609725

Brief Summary

Gingival inflammation has been associated with cardiovascular diseases, including heart attack and stroke, because of elevation of blood risk markers such as cholesterol, glucose and C reactive protein. The treatment of gingival diseases decreases the concentration of these risk factors in the blood of cardiovascular patients.
