The endodontic infections were reported to contribute to the CVD via the metastatic pathways however, there is a requirement to analyse the impact of endodontic infections on the pathogenesis of the cardiovascular disease.
Aim:This research aims to assess the impact of endodontic infections on the pathogenesis of the cardiovascular disease.
Material andMethod:This research was conducted using a cross-sectional research design by recruiting N=120 inpatients and outpatients visiting the healthcare organisation located in Saudi Arabia.
Results:The endodontic infections are likely to increase the overall inflammatory burden, which might increase the risk of CVD among the individuals. Due to the multifactorial aetiology of CVD, the oral diseases are perceived to possess associated with the CVD.
Thestatistical analysis revealed that there is no association between the presence of the lesion of endodontic origin and cardiovascular diseases.
