Brief summary
The research question was to investigate whether non-surgical periodontal therapy could reduce cardiovascular risk markers in Coronary heart disease (CHD) patients.
Detailed description
CHD patients or non-CHD with or without periodontitis were included. They were provided with non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). Periodontal parameters and cardiovascular risk markers were measured at baseline and 3 months and 6 months after NSPT.
Interventions
scaling and root planing, home care instruction

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* non-CHD or CHD (at least 50% diameter stenosis in at least one coronary artery and clinically stable with absence of any potentially confounding inflammatory conditions for at least 6 months) * had at least 14 natural teeth excluding third molars
Exclusion criteria
* received anticoagulant drugs * had chronic conditions (e.g. diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, malignancy, autoimmune disease) or acute conditions (e.g. trauma, surgery) or medications known to affect systemic inflammatory markers (e.g. antibiotics, immunosuppressive, contraceptives) within 3 months * pregnancy or lactation * presence or history of other infections * periodontal treatment within 6 months * tooth extractions within 2 months prior to the study.
