– Gastroesophageal reflux disease can result in worn away teeth and gum disease can cause bleeding gums.
– Early signs of diabetes include white spots on the tongue (oral thrush), a cracked dry mouth and a sudden higher frequency of cavities.
– Following a good oral care routine and seeing your dentist regularly can ensure any conditions are treated appropriately.
