Abstract: Helicobacter Pylori (Hp) is closely related to gastrointestinal diseases.Some scholars have proposed that Hp resides in the oral cavity and oral Hp is related to stomach Hp.The oral cavity has been implicated as a potential Hp reservoir and therefore may be involved in the reinfection or replapse of the stomach Hp after treatment of Hp infection.
