Literature has well evidenced that several pioneer workers had extensively evaluated the interrelationship between poor oral health and infertility. Periodontal diseases are usually triggered by a pathogenic biofilm with a susceptible host. Nevertheless, periodontitis is one of the most common chronic inflammatory oral diseases, most likely associated with the common systemic diseases and reproductive dilemmas for instance preterm birth, low birth weight, fetal growth restriction, preeclampsia and perinatal mortality. In the Indian scenario, it has been observed that fertility dilemmas are commonly associated with cost burdens, comprising a crisis in families. Such issues are frequently seen to be ended as marital conflicts, leading to divorce. Many of the imperative studies have shown a clear-cut association between oral infections and reduced fertility. Therefore keeping all these intermingling facts in mind, this review literature has been comprehensively attempted to genuinely assess the interrelations between poor oral health/ periodontitis and infertility.
