Summary

This study looks at how diabetic nerve damage (polyneuropathy) changes how teeth respond to electrical and cold tests, and how the jaw reflex works. Researchers will compare people with mild or severe diabetic nerve damage to healthy volunteers. The goal is to help dentists avoid misdiagnosing tooth problems in people with diabetes.
