Hi all,
I am a diabetic newbie, so apologies for any stupid ideas or questions in advance. Does diabetes effect your teeth or gums at all? Also in the UK, can you get free dental care? I currently can't afford the treatment I need, so I need to wait to get it until I've paid off debts etc. I'm just concerned that now I'm diabetic, leaving it may cause more harm. Any advice is welcome. X
