Abstract

This study examined cellular and vascular changes in gingival connective tissue samples by stereologic point-counting procedures and interactive digital analyzing systems in long-term insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients. Gingival connective tissue capillaries representing a clinically healthy sulcus with no evidence of periodontal disease at the site of biopsy were studied in 29 patients with diabetes. Based upon their long-term medical records, 19 were identified as having poorly controlled (PIDD) and 10 as controlled insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (CIDD). Ten nondiabetic, age- and gender-matched individuals served as controls. Thirty-nine biopsies were processed for light microscopy, and the blood vessel area was analyzed using an interactive digital analyzing system; 9 gingival biopsies, 5 diabetic and 4 controls, were processed for morphometric electron microscopic analysis. For each individual, site-specific recordings were made for the plaque index, bleeding index, probing depth, loss of attachment, and radiographic loss of interproximal alveolar bone. No evident signs of periodontitis occurred at the biopsy sites. For each PIDD patient, respective volumetric and numeric densities of cellular components incl...Continue Reading
