Diabetes is one of the most common non-communicable diseases in the world, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Diabetes is a complex chronic disease with many side complications; one of them is periodontitis or periodontal tissue inflammation. The two are linked to each other by a high blood glucose level. The purpose of this research was to discern the efficacy of Stigma maydis extract as a topical medication to decrease hyperglycemia also subdues periodontal tissue inflammation. Fifteen Male Wistar rats were included in this study, and the periodontitis model was induced using ligatures tied in lower first incisors; also, alloxan was used to create a diabetes mellitus model in the study animals. The result showed that blood sugar level in Fa group was unsteady (p >0.05), and there was an increase in the blood glucose level after a decrease, while both Fb and Fc groups showed stable blood glucose decrease (p<0.05). Fc managed to subdue the inflammation with mild inflammation results (p<0.05), while both Fa & Fb showed less effect with only moderate inflammation (p>0.05). From this study, it can be concluded that topically administered corn silk extract is efficient in reducing blood sugar levels and subduing periodontal tissue inflammation in diabetes-induced albino rats.
