If you have diabetes, you may be at risk of developing serious oral health problems. Diabetic individuals are more likely to experience gum disease, tooth decay, and other dental problems than those without diabetes.

Dental issues can range from being minor to severe, which could have a negative effect on your overall health and well-being. A toothache can leave you incapable of doing anything and decrease your quality of life. Some dental issues can affect your ability to consume and enjoy food or negatively impact interactions with others. Visiting De Necker Dentistry for annual dental checkups is the best way to avoid dental diseases. Being informed about the common conditions that dentists most often treat, will help you notice a developing problem early enough for you to get it treated before it worsens.
