Correlation in the change of gut microbiota with clinical periodontal parameters in grade C periodontitis patients after non-surgical periodontal therapy.

ABSTRACT: Introduction. Intestinal dysbiosis is associated with systemic health, and approaches targeting the microbiome can influence the host. Oral and intestinal microbiota are interrelated; therefore, we aimed to determine whether non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) affects systemic health through its impact on the intestinal microbiota.Hypothesis/Gap Statement. Although the association between oral and gut microbiota has been suggested, there is limited evidence regarding how periodontal therapy may influence intestinal microbial composition. We hypothesized that NSPT in patients with periodontitis would lead to favourable changes in the gut microbiome, which may parallel improvements in clinical periodontal parameters.Aim. This study aimed to investigate the effect o
