Tooth eruption

  • Eruption is the process of tooth movement from its developmental position in the jaws to a functional position in the oral cavity and involves movement of the tooth through the bone and oral mucosa to reach the occlusal plane.

  • These movements can be divided into three phases called, pre-eruptive, eruptive and post-eruptive phases.

Diabetes and periodontitis: The two way relationship

  • Periodontitis refers to the inflammation of the supporting periodontal tissues surrounding the tooth. 

  • Chronic periodontitis has a slow rate of progression and most commonly affects adults and sometimes even children and adolescents. 

  • Its relation with diabetes mellitus has been researched for many years and is now well established that hyperglycaemia could influence progression of periodontal disease. 

  • There is also a growing body of evidence implicating chronic periodontitis in affecting glycaemic control and aggravating complications in diabetes.
