Diabetes not only increases the risk of serious systemic conditions like cardiovascular disease and kidney problems, but it also has a direct impact on oral health. People with diabetes are at a higher risk of developing dental diseases, including periodontitis, an infection that damages the gums and bone supporting the teeth. If left untreated, periodontitis can result in tooth loss. Additionally, diabetes can lead to dry mouth, which increases the risk of tooth decay and other oral health issues, as saliva plays a vital role in neutralizing acids produced by bacteria in the mouth.
For individuals people with diabetes taking extra steps to protect oral health is crucial. Regular dental visits are essential to monitor and address any issues early, preventing further complications.
