ÖZET 71 diabetli ve 60 sistemik rahatsızlığı olmayan erişkin periodontitisli hasta, Anahtar sözcükler: ABSTRACT The periodontal health status of 71 adult diabetics and 60 non-diabetic controls were investigated. Although the comparison between the whole diabetic group and control group did not reveal any difference in the amount of aetilogic factors, the degree of gingival inflammation and clinical attachment loss was significantly higher in the diabetics. There was a positive correlation between the controlles diabetics status and gingival inflammation. The reason for increased gingival bleeding in poorly controlled diabetics could be either due to inflammation or vascular changes (microangiopathy) in the gingival tissues. Key words: Diabetes mellitus, periodontal disease, gingival bleeding, clinical attachment level.
