Abstract: There are bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and diabetes mellitus, but the pathogenic mechanism of each other is not clear. Oxidative stress (OS) can be activated by long term hyperglycemia of diabetics via multiple processes leading to much reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulated in periodontal tissues. The ROS can alter signal transduction pathway, resulting in abnormality of inflammatory factors gene and protein expression, and enhance host inflammatory response, leading to the damage of periodontal tissues. The study reviewed the effects of OS induced diabetesrelated periodontitis, and mechanism of OS and therapeutic prospect of antioxidant of diabetesrelated periodontitis, so as to provide evidence for the treatment and research of concerning diabetesrelated periodontitis.
