CORRELATION BETWEEN PERIODONTAL DISEASE AND DIABETES
Abstract:
This paper has sought the relationship diabetes-periodontal disease from worrying reports of the World Health Organization concerning the continuous increase in the incidence of diabetes in recent years. Diabetes is a risk factor for severe periodontitis. There is a bidirectional relationship between diabetes and periodontal disease.The treatment of periodontitis in diabetic patients favors a reduction in mediators responsible for the destruction of periodontal tissue. Periodontal disease is characterized by low grade chronic inflammation that may remain silent in diabetics causing damage that is not locally limited but may extend systemically.
