1% Complete
A 60-year-old with stage III periodontitis read online that treating his gums will prevent a heart attack. Which response best reflects current evidence?
Periodontitis is associated with heart disease, but treatment is not proven to prevent heart attacks
Periodontal treatment prevents heart attacks only when it is combined with systemic antibiotics
Periodontitis directly causes most heart attacks, so treatment reliably prevents them within a year
There is no link between periodontitis and heart disease, so his gum treatment is only for his mouth
