Abstract

Gingival capillaries were studied in 18 diabetics and in a control group of 23 non-diabetic patients. The lack of a significant difference in the occurrence of typical capillary lesions in the 2 groups indicate that in the gingival area these lesions cannot be considered as characteristic of diabetes mellitus.
