Abstract

South Kalimantan has seen a significant rise in dental and oral health issues, particularly periodontal diseases, which are prevalent among diabetic patients. This research aimed to analyze the periodontal status and the corresponding treatment needs of the Prolanis group, consisting of diabetic mellitus (DM) patients, at Sungai Ulin Health Center and South Banjarbaru Health Center, Banjarbaru City, during the second year of the study. A descriptive-analytical approach was employed to assess the periodontal tissue condition using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN). A total of 65 respondents were examined, and the results indicated that 49.23% of the participants had tartar, while 30.78% displayed healthy periodontal conditions. Counseling on oral hygiene and scaling treatments were provided. The study emphasizes the importance of regular dental check-ups and proper oral hygiene practices, particularly in diabetic patients, to prevent further complications. Recommendations include brushing teeth twice daily and reducing the intake of cariogenic foods.

Abstract

Periodontal disease is more prevalent and severe in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to describe periodontal status and examine its association with gender and age among diabetic patients enrolled in the Prolanis program. A cross-sectional analytical survey was conducted on all 65 Prolanis participants with confirmed type 2 diabetes mellitus at Banjarbaru Selatan Community Health Center, Indonesia. Periodontal status was assessed using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN). Severity was dichotomized as not severe (score 0–2) and severe (score 3–4). Associations with gender and age groups were tested using chi-square tests (α = 0.05). Participants were predominantly female (84.6%) with a mean age of 58 years. Severe periodontitis (pocket ≥4 mm) was found in 63.1% of patients. No significant association was observed between periodontal disease severity and gender (p = 0.733) or age group (p = 0.114). A high burden of moderate-to-severe periodontitis exists among diabetic patients in the Prolanis program, irrespective of gender or age. Regular periodontal screening and integrated diabetes–oral health management are strongly recommended.
