Sumario:Diabetes and periodontitis are two different chronic diseases that share a bidirectional relationship, with periodontitis being named the sixth complication of diabetes. These two entities have a very high prevalence worldwide becoming a public health problem. Studies have revealed the interaction proposing a multidisciplinary treatment in patients with diabetes and periodontitis, since in both situations there are exacerbated inflammatory processes becoming a powerful set for tooth loss if both or one of them is not controlled and does not receive treatment. More severe periodontitis has been observed in subjects who do not have controlled levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (hAb1c) and this is increased in subjects who do not receive periodontal treatment.
