“…Adler et al in a review hypothesized that oral microflora may be a permanent reservoir of H. pylori, which is still controversial and they stated that recovery of H. pylori in the mouth is probably intermittent, associated with GERD, but not with specific oral diseases. 17 In contrast to our results, Elsheikh and Mahfouz observed association of H. pylori in RAS. 16 However, in the present study, we could not determine the association of H. pylori in patients with RAS and in patients with RAS and concomitant gastric ulcers as the sample size was too small.…”

Aim:The aim of this study is to evaluate the association of Helicobacter pylori in recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) with or without peptic ulcer. Materials and methods:A total of 42 patients were selected for the present study from outpatient Department of Oral Medicine, and divided into control (group I) and test groups (groups II, III). A total number of 15 patients suffering from RAS based on history and clinical examination was selected as group II. A total number of 12 patients suffering concomitantly from RAS and duodenal ulcer based on history and clinical examination were selected as group III. A total number of 15 healthy subjects were selected as controls in group I. All selected subjects belonged to the age group of 16 to 45 years.

“…Several investigators have detected H. pylori in dental plaque and saliva, and also showed that periodontal pockets ! 5 mm in depth are associated with increased odds of H. pylori seropositivity (43)(44)(45)(46). Therefore, long-term H. pylori infection is considered to cause not only gastric mucosal atrophy, but also periodontitis.…”

Objective Metabolic syndrome and dental erosion have been demonstrated to correlate with gastroesophageal acid reflux disease (GERD), while periodontitis has been reported to have a positive relationship with metabolic syndrome. However, no correlation between periodontitis and GERD has yet been reported. We therefore investigated the relationship between periodontitis and GERD. Methods The subjects consisted of 280 individuals who visited the Health Center for a detailed medical checkup examination. Each underwent upper endoscopy and periodontitis examinations, with the latter performed by measuring the concentrations of lactate dehydrogenase and hemoglobin in saliva. The subjects were divided into those with positive and negative periodontitis findings, and the prevalence rates of endoscopically proven reflux esophagitis, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia were compared. Results The number of subjects positive for periodontitis was 93, while 187 had negative findings. The prevalence of reflux esophagitis was not different between the positive and negative groups (8.6% vs. 8.0%). In addition, a multiple logistic regression analysis did not identify a positive relationship between the presence of periodontitis and reflux esophagitis. On the other hand, dyslipidemia and hypertension were more frequently observed in the subjects that were positive for periodontitis. Conclusion We did not find an association between periodontitis and reflux esophagitis in the present study. On the other hand, the presence of periodontitis was found to correlate with hypertension and dyslipidemia.

“…9 Some studies indicate that the H. pylori strains isolated from the oral cavity differ from gastric strains, whereas other researchers have stated that identical strains are present in both the oral cavity and the stomach. 7,10 In most cases, patients who tested positive for H. pylori in the oral cavity also had positive gastric biopsy results, but a large number of patients with gastric infections do not present co-infection in the oral cavity.…”
