Abstract

Background. Studies have suggested a correlation between periodontitis and reduced male fertility. Inflammation has been described as the link between these ailments. Oral inflammatory load (OIL) can be measured through oral polymorphonuclear neutrophil (oPMN) count, which is associated with periodontal diseases. This cross-sectional study assessed the possible correlation between OIL and the functional parameters of sperm cells. Methods. In 229 volunteers, oral rinse and semen samples were assessed for oPMN, semen polymorphonuclears (sPMNs), sperm concentration, total sperm count, motility, m
