ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the effect of periodontal initial therapy on the serum level of lipid in the patients with both periodontitis and hyperlipidemia.Methods:Twenty patients with both hyperlipidemia and moderate to severe chronic periodontitis were enrolled in this study.Periodontal parameters [plaque index(PLI),bleeding on probing(BOP),bleeding index(BI),probing depth(PD) and attachment level(AL)] were evaluated prior to and 3 months after periodontal initial therapy.Simultaneously,the patients' serum levels of total cholesterol,triglyceride,high-lipoprotein cholesterol,low-lipoprotein cholesterol were also measured.Results:(1) Three months after periodontal therapy,the periodontal infection and inflammation in patients reduced comparing with baseline.The PD,PLI,BI,and BOP decreased significantly(the PD,PLI,BI,and BOP reduced from 3.98?0.12 to 2.39?0.13,1.23?0.10 to 0.84?0.08,2.63?0.14 to 1.48?0.08 and 94.26?1.84 to 33.57?2.06,respectively;P
