Cobblehiller, I’ve seen the news reports about an “association” between gum disease and other health problems such as heart trouble. But I’ve never seen one that explained the link.

(And perhaps they’re all caused by high blood sugar and/or high insulin levels.) Does anyone know if diabetics have gum problems?
Anyway, so what do you think it is?
