 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 Non-surgical treatment of periodontal disease in patients with coronary heart disease and blood lipids of TNF On: Zheng Yao Tian Hua Li Ying Wei Cheng Fengxia [Keywords:] periodontal; coronary heart disease; non-surgical periodontal treatment; TNF @; blood Chronic Periodontitis as a specific origin in the dental plaque of chronic inflammation, has been recognized as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Studies show that patients with periodontal disease compared with healthy periodontal risk of cardiovascular disease can be increased by 20% (1). Periodontitis can cause short-term bacteremia, and many will be released to the peripheral blood cytokines, such as: Tumor necrosis factor @ (TNF @), IL-1 (IL 1) and white interleukin 6 (IL 6), etc. These factors may be involved in the formation and progress of atheroma (2.) Non-surgical periodontal therapy is the treatment of chronic periodontitis in the most effective way, the non-surgical periodontal treatment associated with severe periodontitis of elderly patients with coronary heart disease and serum lipid effects of TNF @ A few studies. In this study, analysis of non-surgical treatment, periodontal index, blood lipid concentrations and serum TNF @ the changes of the control teeth peripheral inflammation on the onset of coronary heart disease. 1 Materials and methods 1.1 Case Selection and mouth in our hospital outpatient cardiovascular associated with selecting 17 patients with severe periodontitis with coronary heart disease, 7 males and 10 females aged 60 to 70 (mean (64 + -4.3)) years old, all trial in patients with the informed consent. Case inclusion criteria: coronary artery disease: the standard Judkins coronary angiography method to a more or a coronary artery diameter stenosisgt; = 50% of the diagnostic criteria for coronary heart disease. severe diagnosis of periodontitis: the mouth is larger than 16 remaining teeth, probing depth (PD)gt; = 4 mm,
