Abstract

Diabetes represents one of the most susceptible chronic diseases, encompassing an array of diverse complications. The lack of awareness regarding the detrimental effects of diabetes on dental health is evident therefore this article is to educate people regarding such condition. Currently, there is moderate evidence suggesting a significant impact of diabetes on dental health, Furthermore, it exhibits a pronounced association with periodontitis. as well as a bilateral relationship between periodontal disease and diabetes with each condition potentially exacerbating the other. The present article addresses the existing deficiencies in this field by incorporating an analysis of the impact of diabetes on dental health and proposing effective strategies for its management. The implementation of this approach may effectively contribute to a reduction in the prevalence of diabetes and promote dental health. For individuals diagnosed with diabetes, it enables them to gain awareness regarding the detrimental impact of diabetes on their oral health and take appropriate measures to mitigate such effects.
