Localized Aggressive Periodontitis in a Patient With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Case Report

Abstract: This report proves the efficiency of periodontal therapy in the prevention of future periodontal breakdown in a systemically compromised patient. It seems that in certain individuals who are predisposed to the aggressive forms of periodontitis, clinical and medical examinations and intervention to the systemic condition, in combination with periodontal treatment, are important in the management of these individuals.

“…19 The role of DM in various periodontal diseases has been extensively investigated, with 1 study indicating an impact of periodontal inflammation on diabetic balance. 22 It is reported that DM aggravates both severity and progression of periodontal disease, [44][45][46][47][48] and especially poor metabolic control of DM has often been associated with the severity of periodontitis. 26,33,44,49 The structural changes characterizing diabetic microangiopathy, which may be referred to as abnormal growth and impaired regeneration, strongly suggest a role for a number of aberrantly expressed growth factors, possibly acting in combination, in the development of these complications.…”

“…22 It is reported that DM aggravates both severity and progression of periodontal disease, [44][45][46][47][48] and especially poor metabolic control of DM has often been associated with the severity of periodontitis. 26,33,44,49 The structural changes characterizing diabetic microangiopathy, which may be referred to as abnormal growth and impaired regeneration, strongly suggest a role for a number of aberrantly expressed growth factors, possibly acting in combination, in the development of these complications. This initial speculation has been supported by the detection of increased concentrations of several growth factors in the target tissues of diabetic long-term complications and by enhanced expression of these growth factors consequent to the activation of the biochemical pathway linking hyperglycemia to microvascular changes: the Booth et al 17 have suggested that VEGF was generally upregulated even in relatively healthy sites, probably either reflecting subclinical levels of inflammation/ healing after the microbial assault, or revealing the presence of VEGF as a component of physiological angiogenesis in the gingival/periodontal environment.…”

“…82 Hyperactive or dysregulated neutrophils may lead to collateral tissue damage by releasing inflammatory and toxic substances or tissue-degrading enzymes. [83][84][85][86] Diabetes in vivo and high glucose in vitro stimulate greater production of chemokines that induce neutrophil recruitment in response to a bacterial challenge. 63,[87][88][89] High glucose stimulates neutrophil priming by elevating protein kinase C activity.…”
