It is one of the primary causes of heart disease and stroke. Periodontal diseases encompass conditions like gingivitis and periodontitis, which are multifactorial diseases associated with dysbiotic plaque biofilms that trigger an immune-inflammatory host response, eventually resulting in the destruction of periodontal tissues. Links between periodontal disease and atherosclerosis may be based on direct invasion of periodontal pathogens or inflammatory mechanisms triggered by bacteria related to periodontal lesions, locally or systemically, that may impact the initiation of the atherosclerotic lesion. The presence of periodontal pathogens within an atheromatous lesion implies hematogenous dissemination. The invasion of atheroma by periodontal pathogens results in changes in the proatherogenic and proinflammatory properties of endothelial cells, leading to endothelial dysfunction, which is a hallmark of atherosclerosis. Clinical and epidemiological studies have offered sufficient evidence of periodontitis having an adverse effect on systemic health, including atherosclerosis; however, a direct causal effect has not yet been proved. This review aims to analyse scientific results regarding the mechanism by which periodontal pathogens may cause atherosclerosis as well as to describe the role of\n                    <jats:italic>Porphyromonas gingivalis<\/jats:italic>\n                    in atherosclerotic plaque development and progression.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1556\/030.2023.02145","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,16]],"date-time":"2023-11-16T06:41:31Z","timestamp":1700116891000},"page":"272-277","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1556\/policypage.crossmark.crossref.2","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Role of periodontal pathogens in atherosclerotic plaque development and progression: An overview"],"prefix":"10.1556","volume":"70","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7064-6841","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Amita","family":"Rao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Nitte (Deemed to be University), AB Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences (ABSMIDS), Department of Periodontics, Derlakatte, Mangaluru-575018, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ballamoole Krishna","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nitte (Deemed to be University), Nitte University Centre for Science Education and Research (NUCSER), Division of Infectious Diseases, Derlakatte, Mangaluru-575018, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"425","reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"B1","series-title":"Arch Med Res","first-page":"339","article-title":"Infection and atherosclerosis development","volume":"46","author":"Campbell LA","year":"2015","unstructured":"Campbell LA, Rosenfeld ME.
