Diet, diabetes and tooth decay
If you are one of the 16 million Americans with diabetes, you should know that diabetics are more susceptible to the development of oral health problems than those who do not have diabetes.

Fluoride and bottled water
Fluoridated water reduces risk for tooth decay — and now the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will allow bottlers to make this claim.

Is it wise to remove wisdom teeth?
Wisdom teeth are as useful as any other teeth — unless problems develop when these teeth either fail or have too little room to emerge.
