Healthy subject. FMD and c-IMT will be determined by ultrasound

Apical Periodontitis

The diameter of the target artery (right brachial artery) will be measured from two- dimensional ultrasound images, with a 70 MHz linear array transducer and a standard 128XP/10 system (Acuson, Mountain View, California, USA).
c-IMT will be assessed by M-mode ultrasonography via a vivid 7 MHz linear array transducer and a standard 128XP/10 system (Acuson, Mountain View, California, USA) with participants in the supine position.
