Article Synopsis
- This study assessed how non-surgical periodontal treatment (NS-PT) affects periodontal health and inflammatory markers in women with both periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
- The research involved 30 women with an average age of 52, who underwent NS-PT and had their periodontal and RA activity metrics measured before treatment and at 6 and 12 weeks post-treatment.
- Results showed significant reductions in periodontal indices, disease activity scores, and inflammatory markers (like calprotectin) after NS-PT, suggesting its effectiveness in managing both periodontitis and RA.
