Managing and Maintaining the Periodontal-restorative Interface

. Low GI foods, regular exercise and dental hygiene appointments can help manage both T2D and periodontal disease. Both T2D and periodontal disease result in an elevation of proinflammatory cytokines and altered oral and/or gut microbiome. T2D is characterized by an elevated level of blood glucose and insulin resistance which causes the liver to increase the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines that can travel and target periodontal tissue resulting in destruction of the periodontium and disease associated oral bacteria. P. gingivalis, an oral bacteria, causes periodontal disease which in turn further stimulates the production of this pathogen that can travel and target the liver resulting in T2D. Additionally, T2D can alter the oral microbiome and increase the number of pathogenic bacteria. Periodontal disease can also alter the oral and gut microbiome and increase disease-associated bacteria which alters metabolic activity and increases T2D risk. Note. GI = glycemic index; P. gingivalis = porphyromonas gingivalis. Diagram created with Biorender.
