Summary

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most frequent systemic disorders in medically compromised dental patients. Since it seems to be a significant relationship between diabetes mellitus and apical pathology, any diabetic dental patients should be suspected to develop chronic apical periodontitis both in endodontically treated and untreated teeth.

The diabetic status of a patient should be a key prognostic factor of decision in conservative endodontic management
