Summary
The present study seeks to measure the presence of CPO-D/IHOS index and its relationship with poor oral hygiene of patients with Diabetes Mellitus between 30/60 years, belonging to Tulancingo Hidalgo. Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disease that occurs when the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin or when it fails to act on the body by which the cells do not respond to the stimulus (Carton, 2013; Valencia, 2014). This is a chronic disease in which the body cannot regulate the amount of glucose in the blood. A person with diabetes does not properly absorb glucose and glucose is still circulating in the blood (a condition known as hyperglycemia), which damages the tissues of the body over time This damage can lead to a disability and health complications that can be fatal (Coronel 2012; Juárez, 2012)
