Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of the study is to assess the gingival crevicular blood HbA1c levels in patients with chronic periodontitis and Type 2 diabetes mellitus following non-surgical periodontal therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Total number of fifty patients within range of 35-70 years, with chronic periodontitis and Type 2 diabetes mellitus were selected. The selected subjects were clinically examined for clinical parameters such as plaque index, gingival index, sulcular bleeding index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment loss. The biochemical parameters like random blood sugar(RBS) and HbA1c are also evaluated. The values were recorded at baseline and after non-surgical periodontal therapy recorded at 4 weeks and 12 weeks. RESULTS: The present study revealed that there was a significant reduction in gingival crevicular blood HbA1c levels from 9.36% to 7.96% in patients with chronic periodontitis and Type 2 diabetes mellitus following non-surgical periodontal therapy. Study also proved that gingival crevicular blood collection is easy and effective method to identify glycemic status of diabetic patients by periodontist itself by chairside analyser within few minutes. CONCLUSION: Within the limitations of this study, this can be concluded that there is significant reduction of gingival crevicular blood HbA1c levels following non-surgical periodontal therapy within 12 weeks of time period.
