This article describes the clinical case of a patient, as well as the associated literature data, confirming the direct mutual influence of lesions in the oral cavity and bronchocardiac complex pathology. Special attention has been paid to the side effects of the main drugs prescribed in the basic therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease combined with coronary heart disease. It is noted that drug-induced pathomorphosis can cause the development of periodontal lesions. Insufficient knowledge of these issues and the practical need for corrective measures to be taken by dentists with this category of patients indicates the relevance of research in this direction.
