“…In a previous study of this working group no significant influence of different immunosuppressive rheumatic medications on finding of periodontal pathogenic bacteria could be determined . In another study an association between medication and periodontal bacteria could be found, such that Td was particularly prevalent if TNF‐α antagonists was applied . The current study found differences in the prevalence of periodontal bacteria between subgroups but could not confirm these results.…”

“…Consistent with this finding, different anti‐inflammatory and/or immunosuppressive drugs might influence both RA and periodontal inflammation. In this context, a recent cohort study reported that different pharmacological treatment regimens for RA could influence both diseases; clinical and microbiological symptoms observed in periodontal disease patients . Several studies have addressed the effect of different RA‐related medications on periodontal disease severity and periodontal inflammation .…”
