Abstract:

Periodontitis is a kind of chronic disease characterized by progressive destruction of periodontal supporting tissue. Related studies have shown that periodontitis with Porphyromonas gingivalis as the main pathogen is related to the occurrence and development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, but the relationship between the two is still unclear. This article will review the epidemiology, biological mechanism and other aspects to explore the correlation between the two diseases and further provide possible research directions.

Key words: periodontitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, Porphyromonas gingivalis
