Understanding Diabetes & Oral Health

The relationship between diabetes and oral health, specifically periodontal (gum) disease, is bidirectional. High blood sugar can weaken white blood cells, the body’s main defense against bacterial infections in the mouth. Conversely, severe gum disease can cause blood sugar to rise, making diabetes harder to manage. Proper diabetic management coupled with profession dental cleanings is essential to prevent tooth loss and systemic inflammation.
