The aim of our study was to investigate the impact of diabetes-related factors on the dental disease outcomes of diabetes patients in Trincomalee, Sri Lanka. Dental data were collected from 80 type-2-diabetic individuals. A dental risk score was calculated based on the frequency of dental outcomes observed and categorized as low risk (≤3 dental outcomes) and high risk (>3 dental outcomes). In this cohort of men and women with type 2 diabetes, there was a high frequency of periodontal related outcomes, including missing teeth (70%), gingival recessions (40%), tooth mobility (41%), and bleeding (20%). Thirty-nine (39%) of participants had high dental risk, while forty-nine (61%) had low risk. : After controlling for age, participants with higher capillary blood glucose levels had 3-fold greater odds of a high dental risk score (OR = 2.93, 95%CI = 1.13, 7.61). We found that poor glycemic control indicated by elevated capillary blood glucose was associated with increased dental risk.
我们研究的目的是调查糖尿病相关因素对斯里兰卡亭可马里糖尿病患者牙齿疾病结局的影响。从80名2型糖尿病患者中收集了牙科数据。根据观察到的牙齿结局频率计算牙科风险评分，并分为低风险（≤3个牙齿结局）和高风险（>3个牙齿结局）。在这个2型糖尿病男性和女性队列中，牙周相关结局的发生率很高，包括牙齿缺失（70%）、牙龈退缩（40%）、牙齿松动（41%）和出血（20%）。39名（39%）参与者有高牙科风险，而49名（61%）有低风险。在控制年龄后，毛细血管血糖水平较高的参与者患高牙科风险评分的几率高3倍（OR = 2.93，95%CI = 1.13，7.61）。我们发现，毛细血管血糖升高表明的血糖控制不佳与牙科风险增加有关。
