Diabetes is a major healthcare challenge both in developed and in developing countries. India has a large number with diabetes (72 million) and more than 90% of them have type 2 diabetes (T2D) [1]. Diabetes poses a healthcare burden not only because of the chronic requirement for the management of hyperglycaemia but also due to the associated micro and macro vascular risk factors and disorders [1,2]. Persistent hyperglycaemia can lead to several complications which include periodontal disease (PD), known to be a major complication of diabetes [3,4]. PD is caused due to exogenous bacterial infection and the resultant host response to bacterial challenge. The increased inflammatory response destroys both the endogenous bacteria and also releases cytokines that causes destruction of periodontal tissues [5]. There is emerging evidence to support the existence of a bidirectional Research Article
