Did you know that November is National Diabetes Month?
November is National Diabetes Awareness Month:
According to the American Diabetes Association, research shows that there is an increased prevalence of gum disease among those with diabetes. Early diagnosis and treatment is the key in prevention of gum disease. Call our office today to schedule your consultation.
Here are some things to consider if you are a diabetic:
-
People with diabetes are at higher risk for gum disease and other dental problems.
-
Controlling your glucose level is extremely important because high blood glucose levels can make gum disease get worse.
-
Brush your teeth at least two times a day for at least two minutes and floss at least once a day.
Contact our office if you have additional questions/concerns.
