Stage 2 enrolled 216 patients with generalized periodontitis (studying features of the generalized periodontitis course depending on the coronary heart disease presence): Group 1 consisted of 145 patients with coronary heart disease and generalized periodontitis (79 males and 66 females), Group 2 consisted of 71 patients with generalized periodontitis but without coronary heart disease (40 males and 31 females).Results: It has been established that 172 (95.6%) patients with coronary heart disease had periodontal disease with a predominance of generalized periodontitis in its structure, present in 145 (84.3%) people with coronary heart disease. A more severe clinical course distinguishes generalized periodontitis in patients with coronary heart disease than those without comorbid coronary heart disease. Moreover, it is characterized by a higher mean number of tooth loss (6.21± 0.16 vs 4.83± 0.12 teeth, p < 0.05), more teeth defects (54.69± 2.25% vs 21.15± 1.27%, p < 0.05), higher caries intensity level (11.07± 0.32 vs 8.55± 0.41, p < 0,05), clinical attachment loss (5.76± 0.09 mm vs 4.85± 0.10 mm, p < 0.05), and greater depth of periodontal pockets (4.80± 0.17 mm vs 3.64± 0.21 mm, p < 0.05).Conclusion: Coronary heart disease is a favorable prerequisite for the development and progression of periodontal pathology.Keywords: cardiovascular disease, generalized periodontitis and coronary heart disease, periodontal disease and coronary heart disease, periodontal disease structure in coronary heart disease
