What We're Reading: Diabetes and Gum Disease

Tara Dairman

This week, we’d like to direct your attention to this post at http://blogs.healthcentral.com/diabetes about the connections between diabetes and gum disease. This blog entry is written by David Mendosa, a medical writer with Type 2 diabetes, and discusses a new study on the subject as well as David’s personal experiences controlling gum disease and diabetes.

Speaking of oral health (and health in general!), today is the American Cancer Society’s Great American Smokeout. Click here for more information about smoking less, quitting for the day, or quitting for good.
