About this study

Objective(s) The primary objective is to evaluate the adherence of diabetic patients to periodontal care, accomplished either through oral communication (group A, control) or through a photograph of their smile, and focusing on their gum health evaluated by a periodontist (group B, test).

Secondary objectives include assessing the prevalence of periodontal disease (PD) in this diabetic sample population and evaluating the presence of specific biomarkers related to it.

The final objective is to assess the agreement between the diagnosis of periodontitis based on the photographs and the diagnosis given after the dental visit, based on the clinical examination. The aim is to determine if the photos could potentially serve as a reliable indicator for periodontal risk assessment.

dental visit recommended based on dental expertiseExperimentalPatients' oral cavities will be photographed. Based on the remote assessment of periodontitis risk conducted by the same periodontist from the Division of Regenerative Dental Medicine and Periodontology at the University Clinic of Dental Medicine, patients will be invited or asked to schedule a complimentary periodontal check-up visit at the CUMD. The appointment will be arranged directly at the diabetologist's office.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. adherence of diabetic patients to periodontal

    The primary endpoint is to evaluate the adherence of diabetic patients to periodontal care either by informing them orally or after evaluation of their gum health by a periodontist based on a simple photo of their smile.

    .

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. calculate the prevalence of periodontitis

    Secondary endpoints are to calculate the prevalence of periodontitis and the accordance in diagnosis between the photo and the clinical examination of the patient.

    Measured: 1 month
