OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess the impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on DMFT, periodontal, and periapical conditions, and to analyze potentially significant confounders, including sociodemographic and lifestyle factors.
METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted in July 2021 involving patients aged ≥20 years, with available panoramic radiographs and documented DM status. Sociodemographic factors, lifestyle behaviors (alcohol consumption, betel quid chewing, and smoking), oral health indicators (decayed, missing, and filled teeth [DMFT] index, periodontal and periapical conditions), and DM status were collected. Associations between DM, lifestyle behaviors, and oral health indicators were analyzed using independent sample t-test and chi-square tests. Analysis of covariance and sensitivity analysis were conducted using adjusted models, and stepwise multiple linear regression identified the most significant predictors.
RESULTS: A total of 520 patients were included. Patients with DM had a significantly higher DMFT index (p < 0.01), a 2.97 times greater risk (p < 0.01) of developing periodontal disease, and a 1.76 times greater risk (p = 0.04) of having apical periodontitis compared to those without DM. After age adjustment, females had higher filled teeth (FT) (p < 0.01) and DMFT index (p < 0.05), while patients with DM and smokers had fewer FT (p < 0.05). Age, gender, and lifestyle behaviors were identified as confounders impacting the association with DM. Stepwise regression revealed age as the most significant predictor of the DMFT index (R²=0.35; F = 183; p < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: DM affects oral health by increasing the DMFT index and the risk of periodontal disease and apical periodontitis, with age, gender, and lifestyle habits as confounders.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Periodontitis, apical periodontitis, oral health status, and demographic and lifestyle factors show a strong association with DM.
