There is a higher risk in gum disease in people who have diabetes. It also weakens the ability to battle germs and bacteria that forms in your mouth. If you suffer from diabetes, it’s critically important that you let your dentist know of your condition, as the disease can have a negative impact on your oral health.
Most common dental problems associated with diabetes:
• Increased tooth decay
• Increase in severity of gum disease
• Dry Mouth
• Fungal Infections
• Delayed healing
If you have been diagnosed with diabetes these are a few reasons to maintain routine checkups regularly with your dentist.
