Cohort and cross\u2010sectional studies assessing periodontitis or edentulism in relation to IBD were included. Risk of bias was evaluated using the Newcastle\u2013Ottawa Scale. Meta\u2010analyzes were performed separately for longitudinal and cross\u2010sectional studies using random\u2010effects models, with subgroup and sensitivity analyzes conducted where appropriate.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Twenty\u2010two studies met the eligibility criteria, including 6 cohort studies and 16 cross\u2010sectional studies, comprising 12\u2009627\u2009564 participants. In cohort studies, periodontitis was associated with a trend toward increased incident IBD overall (RR 1.25; 95% CI 0.98\u20131.58), although statistical significance was not reached, while no significant association was observed for CD (RR 1.05; 95% CI 0.86\u20131.29). In contrast, a significant association emerged between periodontitis and incident UC (RR 1.18; 95% CI 1.07\u20131.31). No longitudinal estimates were available for severe periodontitis or edentulism. In cross\u2010sectional studies, periodontitis was significantly associated with prevalent IBD (OR 2.11; 95% CI 1.53\u20132.93), CD (OR 2.02; 95% CI 1.59\u20132.55), and UC (OR 2.48; 95% CI 1.71\u20133.59). Severe periodontitis was also associated with UC in a limited number of studies, whereas evidence regarding edentulism was scarce and inconsistent. Evidence linking periodontitis to IBD activity or severity was more limited and heterogeneous, although several studies suggested associations with markers of disease burden.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Longitudinal evidence suggests that periodontitis has a modest association with incident UC, whereas associations with IBD overall and CD appeared weaker and less consistent. At the same time, cross\u2010sectional studies consistently support the coexistence of periodontitis and IBD, possibly reflecting shared susceptibility, bidirectional interactions, or common oral\u2013gut inflammatory pathways. Whether periodontitis contributes to IBD burden or disease expression over time warrants further longitudinal and mechanistic investigation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jre.70161","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,11]],"date-time":"2026-08-11T12:07:48Z","timestamp":1786450068000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Periodontitis, Edentulism, and Risk of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD): A Systematic Review With Meta\u2010Analysis"],"prefix":"10.1111","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0657-0787","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mario","family":"Aimetti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical Sciences, C.I.R.
