Overview

Analysis shows positive associations between hepatitis and periodontitis, indicating shared inflammatory mechanisms.

Key Points

  • Increased prevalence of periodontitis is linked to hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections, highlighting the oral-liver connection.
  • Proinflammatory cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-α are found in individuals with both hepatitis and periodontal issues.
  • Assessment included studies from the last 20 years, focusing on published research from major medical databases like PubMed and Scopus.
  • Interdisciplinary management between medical and dental professionals is essential for patients with hepatitis and oral health issues.
