Abstract: Periodontitis is a common disease of oral cavity. In recent years, many studies have shown that sleep disorder is associated with periodontitis, and its mechanism may involve psychological stress, circadian rhythm disorder, systemic inflammation, immune suppression, and systemic fatigue, which provides a new perspective for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis. This article reviews the relationship and mechanism between sleep disturbance and periodontitis.

Key words: sleep disorders, periodontitis, relationship, mechanism
