Dental 4 Less, How P. gingivalis causes chronic inflammation in blood vessels

According to a recent study it reveals how one oral pathogen, P. gingivalis (easily remembered because it causes gingivitis) can create chronic inflammation in blood vessels.

Chronic oral infection with the periodontal disease pathogen, Porphyromonas gingivalis, not only causes local inflammation of the gums leading to tooth loss but also is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis.  The study published in PLOS Pathogens now reveals how the pathogen evades the immune system to induce inflammation beyond the oral cavity.
