- Abstract
The aim of this study was to establish relationship between restorative resin and periodontal tissues of patients with diabetes mellitus. We selected 30 patients, 15 patients with diabetes mellitus with a total of 30 restorations and 15 patients without diabetes mellitus with a total of 49 restorations and the periodontal parameters and restorations parameters were evaluated. The total period was 12 months. The results showed a significant improvement in periodontal parameters assessed (p < 0.05). It may be concluded that over the 12-month period, there was no adverse reaction to periodontal tissue as a result of various polishing regimes of a restorative resin-based composite in patients with diabetes mellitus.
