Dr Diny’s recent research has shown that patients with diabetes mellitus lack knowledge of the bidirectional association between periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus. In this regard, Dr Diny has conducted a series of studies that have urged that medical-healthcare professionals and dentists should consider every patient as a shared responsibility. In addition, oral health should be integrated with routine diabetes care to optimise the quality of care of patients living with DM. Dr Diny has conducted several oral health awareness programs.
