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.

Dr Khan explained every step, paid close attention to my pain. Explained post op care at least twice. Then called me that evening to check on me. Since this was the day before Christmas eve, he made himself available over the holiday if there were any issues. Looks like I found a new dentist! Outstanding!
Dr Khan! The best dentist that I have ever worked with. His attention to details is unmatched. Very experienced and knowledgeable and truly cares for his patients.
First Impressions are Lasting ! From the Hygienists to the Dr. Khan , the Assessment, teeth cleaning & debridement ! GIRL YOU BAD ! Lol 😆 , the Plan & Consultation !I am In Family !!
Today, I visited Dr. Khan's office in El Campo, and I was very pleased with the treatment I received from start to finish. Both dentists were incredibly friendly and approachable. They provided detailed explanations about the procedure and the next steps during and after the examination. I’m looking forward to my follow-up appointment in 15 days.
Dr. Khan was so great with our kids. He really connects with them first, and then visits about oral hygiene in a humorous way they can understand.
Fast and friendly service!
Extremely detailed which is precisely what you want in a dentist!
