“…Although the mechanisms by which diabetes and smoking increase the severity of periodontal disease are poorly understood, one may propose that increased susceptibility to periodontal infection, impaired host response and excessive collagenolytic activity all play a major role. 32 Sheridan et al 33 showed that pocket formation, presence of calculus, increased tooth mobility and tooth loss occurred with greater frequency in patients with a decreased glucose tolerance. A positive association between the variations in blood glucose level and the degree of periodontal disease was reported in DM 34 and our results agree with these findings.…”

The Influence of Smoking and Non-Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus on Periodontal Disease

The periodontal health of smokers and non-smokers with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and non-smokers with periodontitis who were not suffering from a systemic disease was assessed. The investigation was carried out on 60 adult subjects. Levels of blood glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin and immunoglobulins G, A and M were determined, together with the plaque index, gingival index, probing pocket depths and clinical attachment level. Periodontitis was more severe in smokers and non-smokers with NIDDM than non-smokers without NIDDM, and the periodontal condition (clinical attachment level, probing pocket depth and gingival bleeding) was better in non-smokers with NIDDM than smokers with NIDDM. The results suggest that diabetes and smoking are high-risk factors for periodontal disease.

“…Sheridan et al 19 showed that pocket formation, presence of calculus, increased tooth mobility and tooth loss occurred with gr e ater frequency in p atients with a decreased glucose tolerance. Albrecht et al 17 have shown that mean DMFT values were higher amongst diabetics than amongst the controls, but attributed this difference to the M component, which they felt was increased due to the high prevalence of periodontal disease amongst diabetics.…”

One hundred and two dentate patients with type II diabetes mellitus and 98 non-diabetic subjects were examined for oral conditions and metabolic state. Self-reported health behaviour was analysed. From factor analysis four factors emerged: general health behaviour (GHB), perceived fatigue (PF), diet control (DC) and regular diet (RD). In diabetics PF, DC and RD were significantly higher than that in non-diabetics. Patients with diabetes were more likely to control their disease through a programme of decreased kilojoule intake leading to weight management. However, they tended to tire. The mean gingivitis index was significantly higher (p<0.01) among diabetics (2.39) than among nondiabetics (1.99). The number of missing teeth was significantly higher (p<0.01) for diabetics (6.7) when compared with non-diabetics (4.3). On the other hand, aetiological factors (plaque, calculus) and the level of dental health behaviour as expressed in the HU-DBI scores were similar. Probing pocket depth did not differ statistically between groups. The increasing number of missing teeth in diabetics may primarily result from severe periodontitis with tooth mobility or deep pockets. Findings in this study suggest that the difference in the severity of periodontitis between diabetics and non-diabetics was significant although aetiological factors and the level of dental health behaviour were similar.

“…2829 Individuals with a decreased glucose tolerance showed a higher rate of pocket formation, presence of calculus, increased tooth mobility and tooth loss. 30 Variable models have been developed to give reason to this correlation such as periodontal chronic inflammation which results in increased circulating cytokines and inflammatory mediators, autoimmune response to the chronic periodontal infection that gives way to endothelial dysfunction, or the presence of certain factors that leads to increased inclination both to periodontal disease and diabetes vascular diseases at the same time. 31 Statistically significant relation has been detected between the HbA1C levels of the patients and the biomass, haemolysin activity and proteinase activity.…”
