title: [Valuable information from the medical history and intraoral examination of diabetic patients].
abstract: A hundred and eighty patients with drug-controlled diabetes mellitus were examined, in order to find out mainly if there is any correlation between their medical history and their intraoral manifestations. The results of this study showed that: 1. Seventy five per cent of patients with diabetes mellitus control their disease with antidiabetic drugs. 2. Almost half of the patients with controlled diabetes mellitus (49.44%) maintain the recent value of blood glucose in low level (170 mgr%). 3. The duration of the disease was related to the dental and gingival clinical features, while the recent value of blood glucose and the antidiabetic regimen were not.
