A significant correlation was found between poor oral hygiene and undiagnosed diabetes in subjects.
Results indicated that a mean fasting blood sugar of 98.93 was associated with an OHI-S score of 3.15.
This study involved a cross-sectional design with 80 patients aged between 40 and 80 years, assessing periodontal and glycaemic metrics.
Findings imply that monitoring oral health could enhance prevention and early detection of undiagnosed diabetes.
