These studies suggest that oral health is correlated with cardiovascular disease, particularly through mechanisms involving periodontal disease, tooth loss, and gingival inflammation, and that good oral hygiene practices may reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

The relationship between oral health and cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been a subject of extensive research. Various studies have explored whether poor oral health, including conditions like periodontal disease, dental caries, and tooth loss, correlates with an increased risk of cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and heart failure (HF).

Oral Health as a Marker for Physical Frailty in CVD Patients:
The collective evidence from multiple studies indicates a significant correlation between poor oral health and an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Periodontal disease and tooth loss are particularly associated with higher incidences of myocardial infarction and heart failure. Improved oral hygiene practices can reduce cardiovascular risks, highlighting the importance of maintaining good oral health for overall cardiovascular well-being. Shared genetic and pathogenetic mechanisms further underscore the interconnectedness of oral and cardiovascular health.
