The shocking links between Gum Disease and Diabetes in the City of Leeds

302075_blogGum disease is an absolutely diabolical condition that tears through the mouth and body causing possible tooth loss and heart failure in the future in the city of Leeds, and if that isn’t enough, it can bring on the problem of diabetes. The poisons from diseased gums leak into the bloodstream and diminish the immune system and with this down or weakened, it is very easy for diabetes to step in and damage you even more. But this works the other way too, for diabetes also diminishes the immune system, breaking down the saliva levels that the mouth requires to naturally take on the fight against bacteria, and so, this leaves you wide open to gum disease. At the first sign of blood on a toothbrush, you need to seek help and work hard at ridding yourself of it to avoid complications in the future. Similarly, you will have to work hard if you already have diabetes and ensure you are using the right medication so that you don’t suffer from gum disease.
