The periodontal health of smokers and non-smokers with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and non-smokers with periodontitis who were not suffering from a systemic disease was assessed. The investigation was carried out on 60 adult subjects. Levels of blood glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin and immunoglobulins G, A and M were determined, together with the plaque index, gingival index, probing pocket depths and clinical attachment level. Periodontitis was more severe in smokers and non-smokers with NIDDM than non-smokers without NIDDM, and the periodontal condition (clinical attachment level, probing pocket depth and gingival bleeding) was better in non-smokers with NIDDM than smokers with NIDDM. The results suggest that diabetes and smoking are high-risk factors for periodontal disease.

 Introduction: Association of Diabetes Mellitus and periodontal disease has been well established over the last few decades. It is a well established risk factor in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. Objective: This study was conducted to assess the prevalence of periodontal disease in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. Methods: Individuals with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus for the duration of at least five years were selected. Plaque Index (PII), Gingival Index (GI), Loss of attachment (LA) and Probing Depth (PD) were recorded using William’s Periodontal probe. Results: Patients with Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus demonstrated higher loss of attachment. Conclusion: The results showed statistically significant association between non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and periodontal disease thus supporting it as a risk factor for periodontitis.
