A large number of studies have confirmed that periodontitis is closely related to systemic multisystem diseases. Local inflammation of periodontal tissue may cause systemic inflammation. As an inflammatory factor, C-reactive protein (CRP) is widely used to monitor various inflammatory states. CRP is not only highly related to periodontitis but also closely related to systemic diseases. This article reviews the relationship between periodontitis and systemic disease epidemiology as well as the mechanism of CRP in the relationship between them. The literature review shows that periodontitis is closely related to cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, premature and low-birth-weight infants, chronic kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis and other systemic diseases. Periodontitis, as a chronic inflammatory disease, can increase the level of serum CRP, thus increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease and affecting blood glucose control in diabetic patients, which may be related to the increased risk of premature delivery and low-birth-weight infants, may affect the development of chronic kidney disease, and may be used as one of the sensitive indicators of rheumatoid arthritis in the active stage. Through periodontal treatment, serum CRP levels can be reduced, which is helpful for the treatment of systemic diseases. CRP levels can be used as indicator for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of periodontitis and systemic diseases.
