Oral health is important for everyone, especially the 24 million Americans living with diabetes. Research shows that patients with diabetes are twice as likely to develop gum disease.
Fortunately, there is much you can do to fight gum disease:
- Manage blood glucose levels
- Floss every day
- Visit the dentist twice a year
- Brush for two minutes twice each day with toothpaste that has an antigingival/antibacterial ingredient
Colgate Total® provides 12 hour protection against a full range of oral health problems, including the gum disease gingivitis. It's the first toothpaste approved by the FDA and the ADA to fight gingivitis and #1 recommended most by dentists.
