OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the oral health status in type 1 diabetic patients and to verify the possible influence of diabetes duration and presence of chronic complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this cross-sectional study 106 diabetic patients aged 14 to 29 years were submitted to clinical dentistry. RESULTS: 56.60% (60) of patients had periodontal disease. A significant association between the presence of calculus (p = 0.011) and periodontal disease (p = 0.045) with time of diagnosis of diabetes over five years. The presence of plaque (p < 0.0001) and chronic complications of diabetes (p = 0.024) showed significant association with disease. Of 84 medical charts analyzed, 75 (89.28%) had glycosylated hemoglobin > 7%, not possible to evaluate this parameter. CONCLUSIONS: Increased time of diagnosis of diabetes, presence of plaque and chronic complications of diabetes were significantly associated with periodontal changes.
