[QUOTE="lilibet, post: 54879, member: 11459"] At my last clinic appt there was a dental research person looking for 5yrs plus diabetics who dont smoke , for a study. I was speaking to her and she indicated that they always knew the link between poorly controlled diabetes and dental problems but they are now very much on the track that gum disease is more prevalent by virtue of just being diabetic, irrespective of hba1c. I said, great I'll add it to list of retinopathy, kidney failure, cardiovascular risks, neuropathies, Alzheimers, reduced life expectancy and sexual problems. Though hopefully not all in the one year..................... :lol: [/QUOTE]
