Periodontal disease and risk of head and neck cancer: a meta-analysis of observational studies.

<h4>Background</h4>Many epidemiological studies have found a positive association of periodontal disease (PD) with risk of head and neck cancer (HNC), but the findings are varied or even contradictory. In this work, we performed a meta-analysis to ascertain the relationship between PD an...
