Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of getting gum disease and infections, with poor blood sugar control increasing the likelihood of gum problems. Gum disease is often painless and you may not even know you have it until it has already started causing serious damage. The best defense diabetics have against gum disease is regular dental visits.
Diabetes is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. Diabetes can cause: burning sensations, overgrowth of gum tissue, abnormal wound healing, tooth decay, periodontal disease, fungal infections, fruity (acetone) breath, dry mouth, and thickness of saliva. These problems are usually related to oral changes that occur in people who have diabetes.

I was visiting Marco island when I started feeling extreme pain in one of my molars. They found a way to work me into their schedule for an initial visit and follow-up. They were all very kind and professional. Thank you!

Just had my first, new patient experience. Very pleased with how pleasant the entire office operates from the front desk to the hygienist to the dentist! I had a thorough cleaning & examination with great communication and planning. I am very pleased 😀
They help us out with an emergency visit. Put us at ease and took care of our problem. We are from out of town on vacation and do happy we found them. Great people to help others.
