Psoriasis is a chronic, non-communicable condition of the skin with an immune-mediated etiology. Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the tooth-supporting tissues and is now recognized as an established risk factor for various systemic diseases. The present observational study aims to assess the prevalence of periodontitis and its related indices in individuals with psoriasis and to compare them with individuals without psoriasis.
