Management of the diabetic dental patient should focus on the delivery of comprehensive dental care with an emphasis on maintaining periodontal health. Gingivitis, periodontitis, and associated bone loss independent of plaque accumulation are associated with poorly controlled diabetes. Periodontal status should be monitored carefully in patients with diabetes and underlying disease managed aggressively. Likewise, the dental team plays an important role in the identification of hypertension and managing dental-related side effects of anti-hypertensives.
