2 型糖尿病已被描述为一种新的流行病。全球约有 2.85 亿人患有糖尿病，预计到 2030 年这一数字将增加约 50%。本文将回顾糖尿病的口腔健康表现，并讨论牙周病与糖尿病之间的关联。尽管有大量证据支持口腔健康与 2 型糖尿病之间的关系，但糖尿病患者和其他卫生专业人员缺乏口腔健康意识。治疗医生需要接受关于糖尿病各种口腔表现的教育，以便能够及早诊断并及时转诊至口腔健康专家。牙周炎和糖尿病之间已确定的联系要求越来越需要研究控制这两种疾病的方法，特别是在健康差异和口腔和医疗保健机会有限的人群中。
Type 2 diabetes mellitus has been described as a new epidemic. Approximately 285 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes, and this number is predicted to increase by approximately 50% by year 2030. This article will review oral health manifestations of diabetes and discuss associations between periodontal disease and diabetes. Although there is a strong body of evidence that supports the relationship between oral health and type 2 diabetes mellitus, oral health awareness is lacking among patients with diabetes and other health professionals. There is a need for the treating physician to be educated about the various oral manifestations of diabetes so that they can be diagnosed early and timely referrals to oral health specialists can be made. The established link between periodontitis and diabetes calls for an increased need to study ways to control both diseases, particularly among populations with health disparities and limited access to oral and health care.
