Overview

Observational study shows increased bone loss in diabetic patients with periodontal disease, highlighting CBCT's diagnostic value.

Key Points

  • Diabetic patients exhibited a mean bone loss of 4.7 mm, compared to 3.0 mm in non-diabetic patients.
  • CBCT identified vertical defects and major periapical lesions more frequently in patients with diabetes.
  • Patients with diabetes experienced a higher occurrence of periodontal pockets over 5 mm, at 75% versus 50%.
  • Three-dimensional imaging through CBCT allows for precise differentiation of case severity, supporting clinical evaluations.
