Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterised by high blood glucose levels that can lead to various systemic complications. Among these complications, oral complications play an important role due to the high vascularisation and innervation of the oral cavity. Regular dental examinations, effective oral hygiene practices and treatments to regulate blood glucose levels are the main methods that contribute to the effective management of complications. Understanding the relationship between diabetes mellitus and oral health and implementing preventive strategies are crucial to improve the overall health and quality of life of individuals with diabetes mellitus. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of these oral complications and the problems they cause.
