Evaluation of Subgingival Microflora in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Patients

Abstract: The present investigation was designed with the aim of studying the microbiota of diabetic patients—both insulin dependent and noninsulin dependent and nondiabetic individuals. Each of the three groups had 15 patients, coming under the age group of 35 to 55 years and all having periodontitis. Even though the microbial flora are almost the same, specific microorganisms may not be predisposing cause for the periodontal disease process in diabetics. The study is clinically significant by means of its implication … Show more

“…Although some authors have reported that the microbial profiles of periodontitis are similar between patients with well‐controlled diabetes and patients without diabetes, 8 diabetes seems to lead to differences in the periodontal microbiota 9‐11 . In addition, periodontitis is more severe 12 and shows a faster rate of progression 13 in patients with diabetes compared with their counterparts without diabetes.…”

“…Kumar et al (27) reported a very similar microbiological profile for diabetic and non-diabetic populations affected by periodontitis. Ciantar et al (28) identified significantly higher numbers of P. gingivalis, A. actinomycetemcomitans, Capnocytophaga spp.…”

“…Others expanded this investigation by evaluating the subgingival microflora in both insulindependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetic patients with periodontitis. Although predominant organisms were identified in the insulin-dependent diabetic group, the study failed to establish statistically significant differences in subgingival microflora between diabetic and healthy individuals (Kumar et al, 2012).…”
