Diabetes affects your body's ability to process sugars.All the food you eat is turned into sugar and used for energy.The warning signs of diabetes includes increased thirst, increased hunger, weight loss,fatique and exhaustion,increased urination. 



If diabetes is left untreated , it can affect your oral health too.people with diabetes face a higher risk of :

1.DRY MOUTH: Uncontrolled diabetes decrease the salivary flow, resulting in dry mouth.Dry mouth can further lead to soreness, ulcers,infectiona and tooth decay.


2.DELAYED HEALING: Wounds with uncontrolled diabetes do not heal quickly after oral surgery or other dental procedures because blood flow to the treatment site being hampered.



3.GINGIVITIS AND PERIODONTITIS: Diabetes leads to thickening of the blood vessels , which may inturn leads to reduced flow of nutrients to and waste products from body tissues. With these combination of events, the body loses its ability to fight against bacteria. since periodontal disease is a bacterial infection, people with uncontrolled diabetes might experience more frequent and severe gum diseases.


4.THRUSH : People with uncontrolled diabetes are highly prone to fungal infections of the mouth and tongue leading to burning of mouth and tongue.



Regular dental visits are important , especially in diabetic patients to prevent further complications. At Dr.Viveks dental clinic, we suggest that treating gum disease can improve blood sugar in patients living with diabetes, decreasing the progression of the disease.Practicing good oral hygiene and having professional deep cleanings done by your dentist can help you lower your HbA1c.To know more about us clickhere.
