Screening for diabetes among periodontitis patients (CODAPT-My© ): care pathway for bridging primary care with dental care services in Malaysia

Background The practice of referring diabetic patients for dental intervention has been poor despite awareness and knowledge on the systemic effects of periodontal disease. Similarly, dentists are rarely updated on the glycaemic status of patients receiving treatment for diabetes. The rising inciden...
