RESUMEN

The prevalence of periodontitis was studied in a population of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients, aged 10-18, with a variety of disease durations and levels of control. The sample included a number of patients with poorly controlled IDDM of long duration. None of the patients had radiographic signs of periodontitis. When considered in conjunction with previously reported studies, the findings suggest that populations of IDDM patients may differ in susceptibility to the periodontal diseases; thus, generalizations concerning prevalence based on only a few studies may be inappropriate.
