      <abstract>
        <p>Oral diseases encompass various conditions affecting teeth, gums, and oral structures and, although preventable, their increasing prevalence and associated issues like pain and aesthetics are concerning. Root canal treatment is a type of treatment that becomes necessary when dental caries reach the dental pulp, causing inflammation and severe pain and impacting oral function. Systemic health conditions are known to influence treatment efficacy, with diabetes being a significant comorbidity affecting oral health. Diabetic individuals must prioritize oral hygiene and regular dental care due to delayed healing and infection complications. Investigating surgical and non-surgical root canal outcomes in diabetic patients is vital, considering the interplay between diabetes and endodontic results. This study, initiated on October 3rd, 2023, conducted a comprehensive literature review using databases like PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane. The study discussed that root canal treatment involves two primary types: non-surgical RCT and surgical RCT. The choice depends on the case, with non-surgical being the initial preference. Surgical RCT is considered when non-surgical options fail or in cases of persistent apical periodontitis. In diabetic patients, complexity arises due to an elevated risk of complications, primarily delayed wound healing, necessitating a comprehensive approach. This involves meticulous blood sugar control, judicious antibiotic use, post-operative care, and collaboration with healthcare providers to enhance overall health and well-being.&#13;
