Abstract
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of periodontal therapy on periodontal clinical index, metabolic control and serum biochemical markers in subjects with type 2 diabetes and chronic periodontitis comprehensively.
METHODS
Forty patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic periodontitis were enrolled, and periodontal clinical parameters, HbA1c, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and serum biochemical markers were tested at baseline and 3 months after initial periodontal therapy.
RESULTS
The periodontal clinical parameters (PLI, BI,PD,CAL and BOP) improved significantly 3 months after initial periodontal therapy (P<0.001). The HbA1c also decreased statistically (P=0.014), while there was no change in venous fasting blood glucose. Other serum biochemical markers changed significantly including serum phosphor increased, calcium-phosphorus ratio decreased, triglyceride decreased, Apo A1 increased, lipoprotein a decreased, and serum total bilirubin increased.
CONCLUSIONS
The initial periodontal therapy can significantly improve periodontal clinical parameters and HbA1c control, but the effect on venous fasting blood glucose was not revealed yet. In addition, initial periodontal therapy can also intervene serum phosphorus,calcium-phosphorus ratio, and the metabolism of lipid.
