Bidirectional Link Between Diabetes and Periodontitis

Diabetes and periodontitis have a bidirectional relationship, wherein poor glycemic control aggravates periodontal disease, and periodontal inflammation worsens insulin resistance. Periodontal therapy can improve glycemic control, highlighting the need for integrated dental and medical care.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the bidirectional relationship between diabetes mellitus and periodontitis.
- Explain the underlying inflammatory and immunological mechanisms linking the two conditions.
- Highlight the impact of glycemic control on periodontal health.
- Assess the influence of periodontal disease on metabolic regulation.
- Promote evidence-based and interdisciplinary management strategies for patients with diabetes and periodontitis.
