Methods Moderate to advanced chronic periodontitis ( CP) was studied in 36 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients classified as 20 with high and fluctuating blood glucose level (DM-H) and 16 with relatively low and stable blood glucose level (DM-L). 28 non-DM CP patients acted as controls (Non-DM). Plaque index (PlI) , gingival index (GI) , bleeding on probing (BOP) , probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment loss (AL) of all patients were recorded at 6 sites on each tooth at the baseline and 1, 3 and 6 months after oral hygiene instruction (OHI), scaling and root planing. Results It was found that the short-term effect of non-surgical periodon-tal procedure had resulted in significant resolution of gingival inflammation and pronounced reduction in pocket depth and gain of attachment loss in both DM and Non-DM CP patients. Conclusion The pilot study suggested that non-surgical periodontal treatment allowed for favorable treatment responses in a group of Chinese diabetic subjects with chronic periodontitis and that their various profiles of blood glucose did not influence the short-term healing response to OHI, scaling and root planning.展开更多
