Diabetics Toothpaste

Diabetics should visit their dental team regularly for monitoring and maintenance oral health care as well as taking time for excellent oral hygiene on a daily basis at home. Oral health problems, in particular gum inflammation, can be more common for diabetics who have poor control of their blood glucose levels. Keeping blood sugar levels within a normal range will reduce this risk. Eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise and not smoking will also help reduce the risk of developing oral health problems.
