Introduction: A significant body of evidence has been accumulated on the associations between periodontitis (PD) and coronary heart disease (CHD), cerebrovascular diseases (CD), coronary atherosclerosis and angiopathy. Associations between arterial hypertension (AH) and diseases of the oral mucosa and PD have also been studied. However, the associations between dental anomalies (DA) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have not been analyzed, especially in Russian scientific papers. Aim: To perform a systematic search and qualitative synthesis of the results of original studies aimed at studying the relationship between PCA and coronary artery disease, hypertensions and atrial fibrillation (AF). Materials and Methods: A systematic search for scientific publications in Russian and English was carried out using PubMed (Medline) and E-library for the period 2000–2023 in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Results: In total, 245 publications were identified, of which only 5 met the inclusion criteria. Patients with a complicated form of CHD – acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were significantly more likely to have DA compared to patients without AMI. There is also evidence suggesting an association between DA and atrial fibrillation (AF). No associations between DA and AH were identified. Conclusions: There is a limited number of research on the associations between DA and CVD in either Russian or English literature. It is suggested that DA may be associated with AF, AMI and, probably, other forms of CHD, but there is a need in replicated of the initial findings in other studies.
