Diabetes
Take Action
Diabetes increases your risk of a variety of diseases, including oral health problems such as gum disease, cavities, and infection. Take extra care of your mouth:
Brush your teeth at least twice per day, preferably after mealtime.
Floss every day.
Visit the dentist twice a year, and discuss your diabetes with him or her.
Make an appointment with your dentist if you notice any bleeding, pain, or other changes.
