This noninvasive technique permits quantitative assessment of (experimental) gingival inflammation in vivo, revealing an influence of T2DM + CP on the number of primary immune cells in the gingival crevice. Patients who are challenged with (local) leukocytosis are likely at risk of collateral damage to the gingival crevice neighboring tissues, favoring the severity and progression of CP and consequently T2DM (www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT01848379).
