Research Hub
Welcome to the Research Hub – your go-to source for concise, digestible summaries of the latest research on the connection between periodontitis and diabetes. Explore key findings on topics such as how periodontal inflammation affects glycaemic control and the benefits of periodontal treatment.
Our summaries provide quick insights, but they are not exhaustive. For a complete understanding of each study’s methodology, results, and implications, we encourage you to review the original research articles. Please note that the Periodontitis-Diabetes hub is not responsible for inaccuracies or misinterpretations of condensed content.
For more guidance on understanding research, including how to interpret studies and evaluate their findings, visit the ‘Colgate Professional Website’ and search for ‘Understanding Research in Dentistry.’

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a growing global health issue, with millions remaining undiagnosed.In Singapore, diabetes prevalence is among the highest in Southeast Asia, with half of those affected unaware of their condition at diagnosis.

Periodontitis affects up to 45% of adults in the United States (US) and has been significantly associated with various systemic health conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Current research suggests that periodontal disease may not only impact oral health but also influence overall mortality.

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth, leading to progressive periodontal tissue destruction and eventual tooth loss if untreated. The main aetiological factor for periodontitis is plaque. However, the two main risk factors for progression of the disease have been identified as smoking and diabetes.

Periodontal disease is commonly seen in individuals with diabetes, particularly with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The chronic inflammation associated with periodontal disease can exacerbate glycaemic control issues and contribute to the progression of diabetes. There is increased evidence regarding the bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and diabetes. Poor glycaemic control can worsen periodontal health, while periodontitis can further impair glycaemic control, creating a vicious cycle.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic condition characterised by elevated blood sugar levels due to insufficient insulin function. Effective glycaemic control is crucial for minimising the risk of both microvascular and macrovascular complications. Research indicates that even a 1% reduction in HbA1c levels can significantly lower the incidence of related health issues.

Prediabetes is increasingly recognised as a major public health issue, affecting about 35% of adults in the United States (US), or roughly 88 million people. While it serves as a significant indicator for developing diabetes, prediabetes is reversible, with around 13% of individuals returning to normal glucose levels. Managing risk factors during the prediabetic phase could alleviate the diabetes burden, a leading cause of morbidity and mortality.

Periodontal breakdown can lead to further damage in nearby tissues if not treated adequately. Extracting a hopeless or non-essential adjacent tooth can enhance the survival of molars that have undergone periodontal treatment.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) has associated complications, ranging from cardiovascular issues to kidney diseases, which impose a considerable burden on both those living with diabetes and the healthcare system at large. Effective management of blood sugar levels is pivotal in averting these complications and enhancing the overall outlook for individuals with diabetes.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health concern, affecting 537 million people worldwide and accounting for 10% of healthcare expenditure in developed countries.

Supportive periodontal care (SPC) is critical for maintaining periodontal stability and preventing recurrence of periodontitis. Personalising treatment plans is increasingly essential due to varying chronic illnesses and patient capacities. Periodontal breakdown during SPC often necessitates additional active therapy, highlighting the need for robust risk assessment tools.
