Descriptive analysis of periodontal parameters and oral hygiene behaviour after gender dependent categorization: mean periodontal screening and recording (PSR), percentage of bleeding teeth (PBT), number of probing pockets with 5 mm (PPD5), gingival index (GI), number of teeth (Tn), visible plaque index (VPI), tooth brushing frequency per day (TBF), amount of time for tooth brushing per day (TBT), interdental cleaning frequency per day (ICF), and frequency of dental checkups per year (FDC) of the non-diabetes (ND) and diabetes groups with oral (OAD) and insulin therapy (INS).
