Diabetes mellitus (DM) and periodontitis are both chronic inflammatory diseases, which contribute significantly to morbidity and are a major health care burden [1]. The interrelationship between DM and periodontitis has been studied for many years. It has been accepted that the supposed interrelationship between DM and periodontitis is a two-way relationship. In this sense, the presence of one condition tends to increases the risk and severity of the other, and vice versa. However, the mechanisms for this two-way relationship still remain unknown.
