Can diabetic patients grow teeth?

Readers in Chengdu in Sichuan asked my aunt: I have been diabetes for many years. Recently, I want to repair the lack of teeth through the internal teeth of the mouth. Is this method feasible? Is there any request?

Tang Haiyang, a dentist at the Second People's Hospital of Chengdu, Sichuan Province, answered: Diabetes can easily induce a variety of systemic diseases and increase the adverse risk of dental implants. Therefore, for patients with diabetes, dental implants need to be met in the following two prerequisites:

1. Hypoglycemia is well controlled by high blood sugar, which is likely to cause wound non -healing or infection. Patients need to check the blood glucose level and glycosinant hemoglobin value before surgery to ensure good blood glucose level control.

2. A series of metabolic changes brought about by the diabetes of periodontal diseases can easily induce periodontal disease. Therefore, it is recommended to treat and control periodontal diseases, and then dental implant surgery will be performed after the disease will improve to improve the safety and success rate of surgery.

Reminder: After dental implant surgery, we must also pay special attention to the management of infection risk and blood sugar management to ensure good dental implant healing and effectively avoid the occurrence of infection and inflammation around implants.
