While growing evidence suggests a link between periodontaldisease (PD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD), the independence of this association and the pathway remain unclear. Herein, we tested the hypotheses that (1) inflammation of the periodontium (PD ) predicts future CVD independently of disease risk factors shared between CVD and PD, and (2) the mechanism linking the two diseases involves heightened arterial inflammation. F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ( F-FDG-PET/CT) imaging was per
