Brief Summary: Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease characterized by loss of tooth supporting periodontal structures and alveolar bone. In the U.S. and worldwide, periodontitis is the major cause of tooth loss in adults.

Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex disease that affects 13-15 million Americans and is associated with a variety of serious complications. T2DM is well established as a strong systemic risk factor for periodontitis. The severity and prevalence of periodontitis is much higher in patients with diabetes. This relationship may be bi-directional.
Detailed Description: The primary treatment for periodontitis is scaling and root planing (SRP), which refers to the mechanical disruption and removal of bacteria and bacterial toxins from the affected tooth root surfaces. This procedure predictably reduces the bacterial load and produces marked improvement in clinical periodontal parameters, though not always complete resolution of the disease. Periodontal therapy may have some systemic benefits by reducing entry into the systemic circulation of pro inflammatory molecules and bacterial byproducts from the periodontal tissues. Since SRP alone is not always a completely effective treatment especially in advanced stages of periodontitis, a variety of adjunctive antimicrobial therapies such as local delivery of antimicrobial agents into periodontal pockets have been developed and employed to further reduce the bacterial load from periodontal pockets, with mixed results.

A recent innovation in the arena of local delivery antimicrobial agents is the PerioProtect ™ system (Perio Tray® and PerioGel® Perio Protect, St. Louis, MO). This consists of a closely fitting acrylic tray (similar to an athletic mouthguard), which is used to administer 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perio Gel®, QNT Anderson, Bismarck, ND) deep into the periodontal pocket and retain the gel in place for a sufficient time period (15 minutes) to effectively reduce the periodontal bacterial load. Studies to date have shown that when PerioProtect ™ is used as adjunct to conventional SRP, this system produces additional benefits in reducing the severity of periodontal disease. However, no studies have yet investigated the use of PerioProtect ™ in patients with T2DM and periodontitis.

Based on the concept of a bi-directional relationship of diabetes and periodontitis, the investigators hypothesize that successful management of periodontal infection in diabetics with the use of PerioProtect ™ will not only improve periodontal status, but also result in improved metabolic control of T2DM.
