Impact of Diabetes on Periodontal Disease:

▪️High blood sugar levels in diabetics can weaken the immune system, making it harder for the body to fight off infections, including gum infections.

▪️Diabetes can cause blood vessels to become damaged, which impairs blood flow and slows healing of gum tissues.

▪️Elevated glucose levels can lead to increased growth of bacteria in the mouth, contributing to plaque buildup and gum inflammation.

Impact of Periodontal Disease on Diabetes:

▪️Chronic gum infection triggers inflammation in the body, which can increase blood sugar levels and make diabetes harder to control.

▪️The inflammatory response caused by periodontal disease releases chemicals that can interfere with insulin's effectiveness, potentially worsening insulin resistance.

❤ Poorly controlled diabetes increases the risk of developing periodontal disease, and advanced periodontal disease can make blood sugar management more difficult. Maintaining good oral hygiene and managing diabetes effectively are essential for breaking this cycle.
