periodontitis is a polymicrobial inflammatory disease caused by various modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors. the non-modifiable risk factors include genetic polymorphisms like the gene coding for alpha-1-antitrypsinase
COPD is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by deterioration of lung function due to loss of elasticity of the lungs.
SERPINA1 gene product has a protective role on the connective tissue components of both lungs and gums.
Hence, this study tries to determine if the gene polymorphism in COPD serves as a risk factor for developing periodontitis.
