Periodontal Diseases Can Worsen Pre-Diabetes Symptoms

Filed in archive Cases , Studies by Gloria Gamat on March 23, 2007

A condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes is called pre-diabetes.

Danish researchers found that periodontal diseases (diseases of the gum) could be a contributing factor to the progression of pre-diabetes.

According to Dr. Carla Pontes Andersen, Department of Periodontology at the University of Copenhagen;

"This study found that having periodontal diseases can alter the metabolic conditions which would probably lead to the progression to pre-diabetic characteristics and Type 2 diabetes."

These findings, which appeared in the March issue of the Journal of Periodontology reiterate the importance of taking care of teeth and gum health.

Response from: no image Frank Varon (Check me out!)

This study utilized mice not human subjects. Mice dont brush their teeth and periodontal disease prevention is a self-care mechanism. Lack of self-care efficacy is a risk factor for the development of metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes, and diabetes. also mice cannot brush and floss their teeth.
