In his podcast "Fettucation", Serdar Deniz (@fettucation on Instagram) speaks openly about his life with type 2 diabetes and obesity and about his weight loss journey. But while he was quite familiar with secondary diseases such as high blood pressure, he did not know that diabetes can also have an impact on his oral health. Periodontitis is a very common concomitant disease of diabetes, which can have many negative effects and therefore urgently deserves more attention. In a conversation with Dr. Frank Marahrens, dentist and vocational school teacher for dental prophylaxis, the interaction between diabetes and periodontitis is also a central topic. They talk about why it is called "periodontitis" and not "periodontosis", about possibilities for prevention and early detection, e.g. through a periodontitis risk test and suitable dental care, but also about targeted treatment in a specialized dental practice.
