Prevalence of Periodontal Disease in Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (Juvenile Diabetes)
TLDR
Because infections and inflammatory reactions often increase the insulin requirements of previously stable patients who have diabetes, this study of periodontal infections in young patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was undertaken.Abstract:

Sara G. Grossi,Joseph J. Zambon,Alex W. Ho,Gary G. Koch,Robert G. Dunford,Eli E. Machtei,Ola M. Norderyd,Robert J. Genco +7 more
TL;DR: Age, smoking, diabetes mellitus, and the presence of subgingival P. gingivalis and B. forsythus are risk indicators for attachment loss, which remain valid after controlling for gender, socioeconomic status, income, education, and oral hygiene status.

Periodontitis and diabetes: a two-way relationship
Philip M. Preshaw,A. L. Alba,David Herrera,Søren Jepsen,A K Konstantinidis,Konstantinos Makrilakis,Roy Taylor +6 more
TL;DR: Emerging evidence to support the existence of a two-way relationship between diabetes and periodontitis, with diabetes increasing the risk for periodontococcal inflammation, andperiodontal inflammation negatively affecting glycaemic control is supported.

Risk factors for periodontal disease.
TL;DR: Many of the systemic risk factors for periodontal disease, such as smoking, diabetes and obesity, and osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, are relatively common and can be expected to affect most patients with periodontals seen in clinics and dental practices.

A System of Classification and Scoring for Prevalence Surveys of Periodontal Disease
TL;DR: A method for scoring the effects of periodontal disease which permits quantitative comparisons between or within human populations, and which may be applied swiftly and with a minimum of equipment in the field is described.

The Periodontal Disease Index (PDI).
TL;DR: The PDI index is primarily concerned with an accurate assessment of the periodontal status of the individual person, and emphasis is placed on recording of the attachment level of theperiodontal tissues relative to the C-E junction.
