Diabetes and Oral Health
Patients with diabetes can help prevent cavities and gum disease through good glucose management and consistent oral care. Patients with diabetes should visit their dentist twice a year for cleanings, x-rays and checkups. Regular preventive care will reduce harmful bacteria, keep blood sugar levels down, and detect early mouth problems when they are easier to treat.
