We've been working on the Dentistry For Diabetics program. This is going to really be a great help to diabetics and pre-diabetics. It is amazing at the connection between dental health and your overall health. Who would have thought that by having an infection in your mouth that you could have an increased risk of heart problems and that if you are diabetic...that you could actually be working against your own self in keeping it under control. The infection makes it harder for you to control your blood sugar and then the rise in blood sugar makes the infection harder to get under control. Round and round it goes. It is a closed-loop that is very important to pay attention to and get under control. It would be so great that if more diabetics paid as much attention to their oral health as they should.
We even had a couple of advertisements for the program in the Reader's Digest, and Diabetes Self Management. Dentistry For Diabetics donated $10,000 to the American Diabetes Association at the end of last month for diabetes education. The local CBS station, WTVR, came out and covered the story. We had a spot on the early morning news the next morning. I shot a video of it while the television crew was in the office.
