Efficacy of Hydrogen Peroxide Gel on Periodontitis With Diabetes

Summary

Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease characterized by loss of tooth supporting periodontal structures and alveolar bone. In the U.S. and worldwide, periodontitis is the major cause of tooth loss in adults. Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex disease that affects 13-15 million Americans and is associated with a variety of serious complications. T2DM is well established as a strong systemic risk factor for periodontitis. The severity and prevalence of periodontitis is much higher in patients with diabetes. This relationship may be bi-directional.
