%X the chronic periodontitis is an infectious disease associated to anaerobic gram negative microorganisms. this entity of chronic nature and high prevalence in the population has been associated with increased risk to acute infarct of the myocardium, stroke, low birth weight and preterm infants. microbiological studies in patients with periodontitis harboring enterobacterias has been detected, show resistant to antimicrobial therapy, clinical situation that is complicated by the high prevalence of overinfection by these microorganisms, affecting the systemic evolution of the patients and response to periodontal therapy. likewise, the lipopolysaccharide present in its wall, has been shown to stimulate cell activation and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which might increase the likelihood of systemic diseases in these patients. the aim of this article is to provide foundation to somehow take measures to address this problem
