C-reactive protein is a substance found in the bloodstream that is an indicator of inflammation. It indicates that an individual may be at risk for heart disease or heart attacks.According to the New England Journal of Medicine, C-reactive protein is made in the liver and in the walls of coronary arteries, and possibly elsewhere in the body. Its levels, which can be measured with a simple blood test, often rise and remain high in patients who have chronic inflammation from conditions like periodontal disease. Patients with chronic inflammation have an increased risk of heart disease.
Research has shown a correlation between high C-reactive protein levels in individuals with periodontal disease and those who have heart disease.
