Periodontal health and early type 2 diabetes risk

• Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with severe systemic and oral health complications, including periodontitis, which is characterised by gum inflammation, periodontal tissue damage, and tooth loss.
• Pre-diabetes, a metabolic condition with elevated blood glucose levels below the diabetic threshold, is also linked to complications like nephropathy and neuropathy.

Periodontitis treatment improves atherosclerosis

Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory condition affecting tooth-supporting structures, is increasingly recognised as influencing systemic health. Evidence links periodontitis with cardiovascular disease (CVD), atherosclerosis, and metabolic disorders, such as diabetes. The disease’s systemic effects may stem from persistent low-grade inflammation and the spread of oral bacteria and pro-inflammatory cytokines into circulation. Elevated markers like high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) are shared by periodontitis and atherosclerosis.

Insulin sensitivity and beta cell function in the development of periodontitis

Inflammation plays a pivotal role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) progression, particularly in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and periodontitis, which share risk factors and systemic inflammatory pathways.

The hidden connection between periodontal disease and metabolic syndrome

14.08.13

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of risk factors, including insulin resistance and obesity, which increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. Its prevalence varies globally, influenced by factors such as gender, country, and ethnicity. In the United States, about 25% of adults over 20 and 40% of older adults are affected. In Europe, prevalence ranges from 7% to 36% in men and 5% to 22% in women, depending on the study and population. Rapid economic changes in countries like China have seen a rise in MetS, largely due to increasing obesity rates.
