Abstract

Back grounds and objectives: The aim was to determine the effect of type I diabetes mellitus on eruption time of dentition and to evaluate the dental caries, debris, calculus and gingival index for both groups. Method: Type I diabetic children and adolescents with age range (6-14) years who were attending to Layla Qasim Center for Diabetes and The Diabetic Child Association Center in Erbil city were included in this study in the period between Dec. 2010 to Mar. 2011. The dentition of all participants was examined for eruption. Besides, the DMF/dmf index, debris index (DI), gingival index (GI) and calculus index (CI) were evaluated. Data obtained from each group were compared statistically.    Results: When compared to the non-diabetic group, we observed that dental development was early about (1.6) years in diabetic group. Results also showed that the total mean value of caries experience (dmft, dmfs,DMFT and DMFS) in diabetic group was less than that of the control group with significant differences. The gingival index among diabetic group was higher than control group. The total mean value of simplified debris index in control group was higher than diabetic group, in contrast to simplified calculus index which was less than in diabetic group with significant differences between them.
