Diabetes Mellitus and its Diabetes Mellitus and its Oral ManifestationsOral Manifestations
IntroductionIntroduction
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease characterized by abnormally elevated blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia) and dysregulation of carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism.
EpidemiologyEpidemiology
• Prevalence is similar in both males and females.
• Incidence rises as the population ages and prevalence of obesity increases.
• An “average” medical practice will have between 60 and 70 diabetic individuals for every 1000 patients and 50% of these will be undiagnosed.
- US prevalence data
ClassificationClassification CharacteristicsCharacteristics
Type 1 DM (Insulin-Type 1 DM (Insulin-dependant DM, formerly dependant DM, formerly
juvenile diabetes)juvenile diabetes)
Beta cell destruction, leading to absolute insulin deficiency.Immune mediated.Idiopathic.
Type 2 DM (Non insulin-Type 2 DM (Non insulin-dependant DM, formerly dependant DM, formerly
adult-onset diabetes)adult-onset diabetes)
Insulin resistance with relative insulin deficiency.
Other specific types of DM Other specific types of DM
Heterogeneous group in which etiology is estb. or partially known.Genetic defects of beta cell function Genetic defects in insulin action Diseases of exocrine pancreasEndocrinopathiesDrugs or chemically induced, etc.

Oral manifestations of DMOral manifestations of DM
Mucosal conditions : oral dysesthesia including
burning mouth, altered wound healing , increase
incidence of infection and candidial infections
(particularly acute pseudomembranous candidiasis
of the tongue, buccal mucosa, gingiva.
Xerostomia (mostly side effect of OHA) and bilateral
generalised salivary gland enlargement or
sialadenitis.
Dry mucosal surfaces caused by insufficient salivary
output are easily irritated, causing minor mucosal
ulcerations, oral burning sensations, increased
likelihood of fungal infections.
High incidence and severity of dental caries in DM patients have been associated with xerostomia, increased GCF glucose levels, increase in dental plaque accumulation.
Prevalence and severity of gingivitis, periodontitis and gingival inflammation, alteration of periodontal wound healing.
Vascular changes seen in retina, glomerulus are also seen in periodontium.
Progressive destructive periodontitis is more common in patients with poor glycemic control.
Poor oral hygiene and smoking contribute to the ^ incidence & severity of periodontitis in DM.
General Management General Management ConsiderationsConsiderations Access level of glycemic control.
Refer patients with signs and symptoms suggestive
of undiagnosed or uncontrolled DM to physicians for
diagnosis and treatment.
Obtain medical consultation if systemic
complications are present.
Use a glucometer to help avoid emergencies related
to diabetes.
Treat aggressively acute oral infections.
Place patients on frequent recall visits to monitor
and treat oral complications and maintain optimal
oral hygiene and diet.
Appointment schedulingAppointment scheduling
Drug Peak Activity
Lispro insulin 30-90 mins.
Regular insulin 2-3 hrs.
NPH / Lente insulin
4-10 hrs.
Oral Sulfonylureas
Depends on individual drug
taken.
Specific Management Specific Management GuidelinesGuidelines
• Use of Epinephrine: Stress epinephrine and cortisol production increases Bld. Glucose level increases. So, pain control and stress reduction are essential. Epinephrine is not contraindicated in these patients as it helps promote better dental anaesthesia and significantly lowers amounts of endogenous epinephrine released.
• Oral Candidiasis : Signifies uncontrolled DM & can manifest in presence of salivary hypofunction. Treatment is similar except that topical antifungal medications should be sugar free. If topical antifungal therapy is not successful after 7 – 10 days, systemic antifungal agents may be required.
Management of Recurrent HSV Infection: Oral Acyclovir, famciclovir, or valacyclovir can be used.
Management of Burning moth syndrome: Xerostomia and Candidiasis can contribute to the symptoms associated with burning mouth. Amitriptyline can be used.
Surgical considerations : Well controlled DM patient = Normal patient. Antibiotics may be given for orofacial infections and oral surgical procedures in poorly controlled DM patient.
Periodontal Management: Nonsurgical debridement and systemic antibiotics(tetracycline, doxycycline) is the treatment.
Oral diseases management with Corticosteroids: They increase glucose levels so physician should be consulted and adjustment of dosage of drugs is required.
Managing Diabetic Managing Diabetic Emergency(Hypoglycemic Emergency(Hypoglycemic Shock)Shock)Hypoglycemia is a potentially life threatening
situation.Signs and symptoms: Confusion, sweating,
tremors, agitation, anxiety, diziness, tingling or numbness, and tachycardia. Seizure or loss of consciousness may occur.
Bld. Glucose is checked with glucometer(15 sec) and glucose is administerd to patient. Patient recovers within 10-15 minutes and is observed for 30 to 60 mins.
Hyperglycemia is less likely to occur and develops more slowly. Emergency medical system is activated, opening of airway and administration of O2.
Factors that increase risk of Factors that increase risk of HypoglycemiaHypoglycemia
Skipping or delaying food intake.Injection of too much insulin.Injection of insulin into tissue with high bld. flow.Increasing exercise level without adjusting insulin
or sulfonylurea dose.Alcohol consumption.Inability to recognise symptoms of hypoglycemia.Anxiety, stress.Denial of warning signs or symptoms.Past history of hypoglycemia.Hypoglycemia unawareness.
Treatment of Hypoglycemia in Treatment of Hypoglycemia in dental office.dental office.
Patient Condition Treatment
Patient is awake and able to take food by
mouth.
Give 15 gm oral carbohydrate.
125 -175 ml fruit juice or soda.
3-4 tablespoon sugar.Hard candy.
Cake frosting.
Patient is unable to take food by mouth
and IV line is in place.
Give 25-30 ml D50 (50 % dextrose solution) or
1 mg glucagon.
Patient is unable to take food by mouth and IV line is not in
place.
Give 1 mg glucagon Subcutaneously or IM at
almost any body site.
