Condition: Gum Disease · Prediabetes · Sponsor: The University of Hong Kong
Prediabetes is an intermediate stage before the development of diabetes, characterized by elevated blood glucose levels but lower than the diagnostic criteria of diabetes and is associated with multiple long-term complications. This systemic disease is mutually linked to inflammatory gum diseases through circulating inflammatory mediators. Controlling inflammatory gum diseases improves blood glucose levels and reduces long-term complications. While maintaining good oral hygiene through home care is essential for managing inflammatory gum diseases, close supervision of patients' home care is labor-intensive and expensive. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been used to provide personalized advice on the adequacy of patients' home care (oral hygiene). The investigators hypothesize that the use of AI can improve home care, thereby enhancing both gum health and systemic health, similar to human dental professionals.
