MODERN APPROACHES TO MANAGING PERIODONTITIS IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE II DIABETES MELLITUS

Periodontitis is a frequent complication in patients with type II diabetes mellitus, often leading to accelerated tissue damage and delayed recovery. The interaction between chronic hyperglycemia, immune dysfunction, and persistent inflammation exacerbates periodontal destruction. This study investigates current approaches to improve periodontal treatment outcomes in diabetic patients. Results show that modern, individualized therapies can significantly reduce inflammation, promote tissue healing, and stabilize clinical parameters. Coordinated management that combines metabolic control with targeted periodontal care is critical for improving both oral and systemic health in diabetic individuals.
