Changes in periodontal tissues in patients with impaired glucose metabolism

According to the International diabetes Federation, more than 425 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes. The saddest thing is that every second of them does not even know about their illness. We know that this disease does not appear immediately, but affects almost all organ systems. In developed countries, the number of diabetics doubles every 20 years, but it is not yet possible to stop this increase. Because of the severity of this problem, who has declared diabetes an epidemic of the 21st century? In Uzbekistan, the number of patients with diabetes is more than 245 thousand, including more than 2.3 thousand children and 879 teenagers.
