Diabetes and Your Dental Health – The Important Relationship….

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

While it is incorrect to say that there is an officially recognized direct connection between these two diseases, most researchers agree that it is likely that there is. So bear in mind, that the official verdict that diabetes and sore gums (from gum disease) are interrelated has not come yet. However, most professionals feel that they are.

What is the problem specifically? Well, the problem involves an elevated inflammatory response. The way that periodontal disease can harm your body’s way of dealing with sugar is as follows. Unhealthy gum tissue develops into a long-term chronic infection. As a result, you may find elevated levels of inflammatory response chemicals in the blood stream. One of the unfortunate byproducts of inflammation is that the insulin receptors on the surface of the body’s cells tend to become fewer. Without as many cell receptors for insulin, it is much harder for the body to process glucose.

You are left with high blood sugar levels and this is a problem. This is one of the proposed theories of how these diseases are interrelated. In fact, the way that gum disease is related to many diseases may have something to do with the long term chronic infection that this disease produces.

The inflammatory response is good for short term problems. But when the response is chronic, the body is weakened in many ways. It is important to stop periodontal disease.

Perhaps a natural essential oil approach would be helpful. Maybe ora-md would help.
