Oral health is important for overall health!

Help Improve Gum Health

* Brush and floss regularly

* Visit the dentist or periodontist more frequently

* Maintain good blood sugar control

If you are diabetic:

* Ask your doctor to send a report of your A1C blood sugar level to your dentist each time you get tested.

* Be seen more often by a dental professional than people without diabetes, even if sugars are out of control.

* Request your dentist send an update to your doctor after each visit.

* Ask if your dentist knows your most-recent A1C results.
