Sumario:This study investigated the associations between cardiovascular risk parameters, glycemic level and periodontitis in the diabetic adult population. BMI (body mass index), total cholesterol and triglyceride was used as cardiovascular risk measure and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was recorded for glycemic levels. Study results provide evidence of significant association between periodontal disease, cardiovascular risk and glycemic levels.
