Core Tip Periodontal disease (PD) and Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) share many pathological and immunological similarities. Recent studies have established significant association between the two. Bacterial infection, genetic susceptibility, altered immune reaction and inflammatory mediators considered responsible for RA are also associated with PD. So it is plausible that a biological link may exist between PD and RA. Therapies aimed at reduction of inflammatory mediators and effector molecules can probably reduce the severity of both RA and PD.
