Summary

The main goal of this study is to look at the way gums heal around dental implants placed in healthy patients compared to patients with type 2 diabetes. This study is designed to answer the following questions:

* How much swelling occurs around dental implants placed in patients with type 2 diabetes?
* Is swelling (inflammation) present or absent in the initial healing phase after placement of dental implants?
* What are the differences in the amount of swelling (inflammation) in patients with and without type 2 diabetes? Are patients with type 2 diabetes more likely to have bone loss around dental implants?
