H.Pylori is an important factor in pathogenesis of numerous diseases including metabolic, gastrointestinal and vascular disorders.The oral cavity has been proposed as a reservoir for Helicobacter pylori that could be responsible for refractoriness of gastri c infection to triple therapy (antibiotics, antimicrobials, proton pump inhibitors). Analysis of data suggests that periodontal treatment in combination with systemic therapy could be a promising approach to increasing the therapy’s efficacy and decreasing the risk of infection recurrence. Some authors have given conflicting evidences, to date there has been no clear cut evidence / study which directly correlates H. Pylori infection of periodontal pockets / plaque leading to peptic ulcer, duodenal ulcers an d stomach cancers.
