Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that type 2 diabetes increases the risk of gum disease and tooth loss?

Yes. An official NIDDK page states that high blood glucose increases the risk that gum disease progresses and that untreated gum disease leads to tooth loss, and a study of Hispanic Americans with type 2 diabetes found more periodontal destruction and tooth loss.
