“…After adjusting for smoking exposure, ethnicity, dental visit pattern, and number of teeth, conditional logistic regression modeling did not find any association using five different case definitions for severe periodontitis. 15 In the present study, an association between periodontitis and diabetes was found among Filipino patients, with an unadjusted odds ratio of 7.19. When adjusted for age, sex, educational attainment, and smoking status through a logistic regression analysis, a significant association remained, with an adjusted odds ratio of 3.05.…”

“…13,14 Moreover, although an association between diabetes and periodontitis was observed in a New Zealand population, the relationship between the two chronic diseases was dependent on the periodontitis case definition used. 15 The results of the aforementioned researches suggest that aside from methodological differences affecting the outcome of studies, the presence and strength of the association between diabetes and periodontitis may vary based on geographical distribution. Therefore, it has been suggested that additional studies be conducted globally in the majority of countries.…”

Objective. The association between periodontitis and diabetes mellitus varies based on geographical location, and there are limited investigations on the relationship of the two chronic diseases among Philippine subjects. This study aimed to determine the association between periodontitis and diabetes among Filipino dental school patients. Methods.In this retrospective case-control study, the periodontal conditions and diabetic statuses of all patients who sought treatment at the Dental College's Oral Medicine clinic within two academic years were reviewed. The prevalence of diabetes among 715 cases of periodontitis was compared to the prevalence among 834 control patients without periodontitis. Odds ratios (OR) were computed using logistic regression analysis, adjusting for age, sex, educational attainment, and smoking status.Results. The overall prevalence of diabetes mellitus for all patients was 3.10%. Patients with periodontitis had a significantly higher prevalence of diabetes at 5.73% compared to control subjects without periodontitis, whose diabetes prevalence was recorded at 0.84% (P<0.001). A significant association was observed between periodontitis and diabetes, with an unadjusted OR=7.19. After logistic regression analysis to control confounding variables, the adjusted OR was found to be 3.05 (95% confidence interval = 1.27 to 7.31; P=0.012). Conclusion.The prevalence and odds of having diabetes are significantly higher among Filipino dental school patients with periodontitis, compared to patients without periodontitis. These results provide evidence to support an association between periodontitis and diabetes mellitus in this representative sample of the Filipino population.

“…Pima Indians make up an indigenous group in the United States who have historically had high rates of diabetic members; 50% of Pina Indians over 30 years of age suffer from Diabetes. [14] Results from a cross-sectional study demonstrated that diabetic Pima Indians were 2.8 times more likely to have Periodontitis than non-diabetic Pima Indians. [14] In another study demonstrating the relationship of Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Periodontitis, patients in the study who had reported being diabetic, show 2.70 greater chances of being diagnosed with severe periodontitis, with nasal breathing difficulty, and dry mouth in association.…”

Periodontitis is a chronic, inflammatory disease that is characterized by swollen gums, degradation of jaw structure, and potentially tooth loss. Like Periodontitis, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is also highly prevalent and largely multifactorial. Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which higher than normal blood glucose levels cannot be properly maintained as the body's normal mechanism of maintaining proper blood glucose levels, the release of insulin from pancreatic islet β-cells, becomes ineffective. The purpose of this literature review is to explore the relationship between the incidences of Periodontitis and Type 2 Diabetes. The risk that Type 2 Diabetes poses for the incidence of Periodontitis is analyzed. Patients afflicted with Type 2 Diabetes were found to be approximately three times as likely to eventually suffer from Periodontitis, as well. There is also emerging evidence supporting the correlation between the degree of hyperglycemia and severity of Periodontitis. Potential underlying mechanisms linking the two conditions at the cellular level have been discussed. Immune functioning and cytokine biology are among discussed mechanisms. Recent discoveries have also suggested that Periodontitis may also negatively impact glycemic control. As a result, not only should healthcare providers emphasize oral health as part of Type 2 Diabetes management, but healthy eating and physical activity should be among recommendations that make up Periodontal management.

Quantifying the Association Between Self‐Reported Diabetes and Periodontitis in the New Zealand Population

Abstract: The diabetes-periodontitis association in the NZ population remains unclear. This study demonstrates that the determination of the strength of a putative association is method dependent.
