A gum infection, or periodontal disease, can lead to elevated enzyme levels in the body, particularly in the bloodstream. This occurs as the infection triggers an inflammatory response, causing the release of enzymes from immune cells and damaged tissues. Elevated levels of certain enzymes, such as alkaline phosphatase or aspartate aminotransferase, can indicate tissue damage and inflammation associated with the infection. Additionally, systemic effects from the infection may further contribute to these elevated enzyme levels.

Can gum disease raise cpk levels?

Yes, gum disease can potentially raise creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels. Inflammation and infection associated with periodontal disease can lead to systemic effects that may elevate CPK, as this enzyme is released during tissue damage. However, elevated CPK levels are more commonly associated with muscle injury or heart conditions, so while gum disease might contribute, it is not a primary cause. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and understanding of elevated CPK levels.
