Two million Australians are at high risk of type 2 diabetes. There is enough evidence that gum disease can predispose a healthy person to develop Diabetes. On the other hand gum disease is a symptom of diabetes and untreated gum disease can interfere with controlling the level glucose in the blood.
We at Tooronga Family Dentistry and Dr. Kaufman are aware of the risks of gum disease and place an emphasis of oral hygiene and prevention.
As part of the National diabetes week, we will be giving advice and answering questions at Tooronga shopping Center on Wednesday 16/7/2014 from 10am to 1 pm.
See us at there.
