Brief Summary  
India has one of the highest burdens of cardiovascular disease (CVD) worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, India accounts for one-fifth of these deaths worldwide especially in younger population. CVDs strike Indians a decade earlier than the western population. Chronic infections accelerate vascular inflammation and promote thrombosis of vascular vessels and are believed to be a secondary pathogenic pathway. Periodontitis is an infectious disease resulting in inflammation within the supporting tissues of teeth resulting in progressive attachment and alveolar bone loss. Overall prevalence of Periodontitis is 47.2% in Indian population. There are two reasons why Periodontitis and CVD are believed to be related. Firstly, the levels of systemic inflammation increase when moderate or severe periodontitis is present. Secondly, the periodontal bacteria may invade the damaged periodontal tissue, enter the bloodstream and further invade the cardiovascular system. There is evidence for a strong association between Periodontitis and CVD, but a direct causal relationship has not been established. There is scarcity of information about whether periodontal treatment is able to reduce the risk for cardiovascular disease in periodontitis subjects. Hence, this Randomized controlled trial is designed to test the effect of nonsurgical periodontal treatment on Carotid Intima media thickness (c - IMT) and cardiovascular risk biomarkers viz., Endocan, Platelet indices and Highly sensitive C- Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) in subjects diagnosed with stage II or stage III Periodontitis at risk or not at risk of  Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD), with follow-up time of at least one year. The patients considered at risk for ASCVD will be borderline cholesterol level, pre – diabetes and pre – hypertension subjects. In addition, we will also see changes in Blood Pressure (BP) in Prehypertensive, Lipid Profile in Borderline - high cholesterol,  blood glucose level in prediabetic subjects. Also, periodontal parameters will be assessed.
