Abstract

The purpose of this study was to improve knowledge about oral symptoms and problems associated with diabetes mellitus. Collected data highlighted diabetes mellitus as a prevalent chronic disorder marked by hyperglycemia, leading to various complications throughout the body, including the oral cavity. Notable oral issues associated with diabetes encompass xerostomia, periodontal disease, dental caries, gingivitis, heightened susceptibility to oral infections, burning mouth, taste disturbances, and delayed wound healing. Recognized as significant complications, oral issues in patients with diabetes mellitus impact their quality of life. Chronic oral complications may adversely affect blood glucose control, underscoring the importance of preventive measures and effective management of oral complications in these patients.
