After 14 days of inducing periodontal lesions, the animals were observed for an additional 54 days, corresponding to a complete cycle of spermatogenesis. Rats from the periodontitis group (GP, <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a012) and the control group (GC, <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a012) were paired with healthy females (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a048) for 10 days, equivalent to 2 estrous cycles.

We induced periodontitis in male rats and, after a full cycle of sperm production, these rats were mated with healthy females. We observed that the rats with periodontitis had worse reproductive performance compared to the control group without periodontitis. Additionally, the offspring of the rats with periodontitis showed signs of compromised intrauterine development and a higher incidence of congenital malformations. These results highlight that the inflammation caused by periodontitis can have adverse effects beyond the mouth, significantly impacting male reproductive health and offspring development. These findings suggest the need for further research into the clinical implications of periodontitis on reproductive health.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/jper.24-0281","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,18]],"date-time":"2024-12-18T08:47:37Z","timestamp":1734511657000},"page":"455-466","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Effects
