Acetone breath, dry mouth, or increased tooth decay may indicate diabetes. In this respect aif.ru said the dentist, chief physician of the dental clinic Ilya Antonov.
An unpleasant acetone odor from the mouth may be a sign of pancreatic dysfunction and diabetes. The fact is that toxins are removed from tissues through the bloodstream, including the lungs. Impaired taste perception may be associated with excessive release of toxins that are removed through breathing. A person with diabetes also runs the risk of receiving a false positive alcohol test result during a DPS test. It is recommended that you have a diabetes certificate with you.
Diabetes also accelerates tooth wear and decay by leaching calcium and phosphorus. Dry mouth may be caused by malfunction of the parotid salivary glands.
Changes in the red edges of the lips, dry lips with cracks may also indicate diabetes. It is important to monitor changes in the color of the tongue and the entire oral mucosa. The latter may become red, swollen or bluish in diabetes. Thinning of the gum mucosa may cause bleeding.
