The association between various systemic diseases and periodontitis has been explored extensively. A sedentary lifestyle plays a significant role in systemic and periodontal disease progression. Therefore, lifestyle modification has been considered a component of therapeutic aspects for periodontal disease and systemic disease. This review focuses on how yoga may reduce chronic gingival inflammation by improving the body's defense, which can act more efficiently on periodontal bacteria and help maintain healthy gingiva.
A literature search was performed in PubMed/MEDLINE CINAHL, Web of Science, and Google Scholar for all the published articles related to yoga and its systemic benefits and potential role in reducing periodontal breakdown, and the findings were summarized.
The practice of yoga therapy has been proven to show several benefits, such as reduced stress levels, anxiety and depression, increased antioxidant levels, reduced insulin resistance, and improved respiratory function. It also helps to improve the immune system.
Yoga can be used as a potential treatment modality adjunct to conventional periodontal therapy as it has been shown to have a potential benefit in controlling systemic risk factors.
多种全身性疾病与牙周炎之间的关联已得到广泛研究。久坐不动的生活方式在全身性疾病和牙周疾病进展中起着重要作用。因此，生活方式的改变已被视为牙周疾病和全身性疾病治疗的一个组成部分。本综述聚焦于瑜伽如何通过增强身体防御来减轻慢性牙龈炎症，这种防御能更有效地作用于牙周细菌并有助于维持牙龈健康。
在PubMed/MEDLINE、CINAHL、科学网和谷歌学术中进行文献检索，查找所有已发表的与瑜伽及其全身性益处以及在减少牙周破坏方面的潜在作用相关的文章，并对研究结果进行总结。
瑜伽疗法已被证明有多种益处，如减轻压力水平、焦虑和抑郁，提高抗氧化剂水平，降低胰岛素抵抗，改善呼吸功能。它还有助于增强免疫系统。
瑜伽可作为传统牙周治疗的一种潜在辅助治疗方式，因为它已被证明在控制全身性风险因素方面具有潜在益处。
