Abstract
Periodontal disease is a chronic infectious
disease of the tissues surrounding the teeth that result
in tooth loss. It affects up to 50% of the adult population
worldwide. Serious periodontitis has been
reported as the sixth most common infection around
the world. Periodontal disease has been associated
with liver disease. Moreover, dental infections may
impact the clinical course of liver disease. Furthermore,
untreated dental problems can lead to infections
and sepsis and may cause many complications
in liver transplanted patients. The results of studies
documented high levels of dental management among
patientswith chronic liver diseases. Therefore, periodontitis
in patients with chronic liver disease need
to be detected early and treated under collaborative
of hepatologist and dentist in order to prevent
progression of chronic liver disease
