Effect of metabolic control in diabetes mellitus type 1 patients and its association with periodontal disease

Objective. To compare the frequency of periodontal disease in type 1 diabetes mellitus patients with and without metabolic control, having a control group of healthy patients. Material and methods. A prolective cross sectional study with simple random sampling was carried out; patients were divided in three groups: A). Forty healthy subjects, B). Twenty diabetic patients with metabolic control, and C). Twenty diabetic patients without metabolic control. The diabetic subjects were evaluated with glycosilated hemoglobin (GHb) to determine the glucose control; clinical periodontal evaluations were performed for all teeth in each subject and following indexes were included: Plaque, gingival, mobility, probing depth, attachment level, bleeding on probing, and marginal bone loss. Results. The imbalance of glucose of subjects with diabetes mellitus type 1 was associated with more frequency of periodontal disease (p < 0.05). Conclusion. The population of type 1 diabetes mellitus with imbalance of glucose showed association with periodontal disease.
