| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS Y2R0xysC. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives : We explored the association between diabetes mellitus and oral disease in a low-socioeconomic-status urban population. Methods : Dental records of 150 adults with diabetes and 150 nondiabetic controls from the dental clinic at Columbia University in Northern Manhattan matched by age and gender were studied. Results : There was a 50% increase in alveolar bone loss in diabetic patients compared with nondiabetic controls. Diabetes, increasing age, male gender, and use of tobacco products had a statistically significant effect on bone loss. Conclusions : Our findings provide evidence that diabetes is an added risk for oral disease in this low-income, underserved population of Northern Manhattan. Oral disease prevention and treatment programs may need to be part of the standards of continuing care for patients with diabetes. |
