Brief Summary

Current evidence suggests a bidirectional association between periodontitis and diabetes. Periodontal therapy improves short term HbA1c levels and is safe to perform. Most studies are focused on type 2 Diabetes. Literature about the correlation between periodontitis and type 1 diabetes is scarce, since no randomized clinical trials have been performed. The objective of the present clinical investigation is to evaluate the effects of nonsurgical treatment of periodontal disease on glycemic variability in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). The hypothesis is that nonsurgical periodontal therapy affects glycemic variability in terms of time spent in hyperglycemia.
