Also, nutritional deficiency may develop due to the inability of the elderly population to chew food properly due to loss of teeth following various reasons and leading to complete or partial edentulism. This review is aimed to find a correlation between, edentulism, nutrition, and diabetes and can the treatment of edentulism has an effect on the improvement of nutritional status in diabetic patients.
