Diabetes

People living with diabetes are vulnerable to a host of systemic problems in their entire body. Unfortunately, the mouth and teeth are not immune from such problems, and many diabetics with oral problems go undiagnosed until conditions become advanced.

Infections and other problems such as receding gums and gum disease, or periodontal disease, are common afflictions among diabetics for many reasons; for instance, diabetics often are plagued by diminished saliva production, which can hamper the proper cleansing of cavity-causing debris and bacteria from the mouth. In addition, blood sugar levels that are out of balance could lead to problems that promote cavities and gum disease.

As with any condition, good oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing and rinsing, as well as the proper diabetic diet, will go a long way in preventing needless problems.

  • "Doctor Coston is honest, gentle and thurough. He doesn't try to upsell and push treatments like some area dentists that I've seen. The most positive and calm experience at a dentist I've ever had. His hygienists are knowledgeable and accurate in their cleaning. I also have had a filling done by Dr. Coston, which I'm usually very anxious about, but it was surprisingly comfortable and easy."

  • "I have been seeing Dr. Coston for at least 10 years. I could not ask for a more caring, knowledgeable dentist! I truly loathe going to the dentist, but Dr. Coston always ensures I am comfortable and pain free. I love all the hygienists and the front office staff! Just all around awesome!"

  • "I have been a patient of Dr. Coston for about 10 years. He is the best dentist I have ever been to! He is the epitome of professional, kind, and caring. He is an extreme perfectionist, the best kind of dentist anyone would want. I referred my friends and my family members and they have also been patients for years and have regular appointments with him. His staff is excellent. Yelp and other social media is a great source of feedback for us.....however....there are malevolent people out there, (such as scorned exes), who take unnecessary and reprehensible steps to defame and smear others. It is despicable for anyone to do so to an individual with an esteemed and highly respectable character."
