DIABETIC FOOT PROBLEMS: Foot problems are leading causes of hospitalization for the 16 million persons in the United States with diabetes mellitus accounting for expenditures of hundreds of millions of dollars annually.

The most common of these problems are infection, ulceration, or gangrene (death of the tissue) which can lead , in the most severe of cases, to amputaton of a toe, foot, or leg. The good news is that most of these problems can be prevented through regular podiatric visits, patient education, daily foot inspection and care, proper footwear, and early recognition and treatment of any suspected trouble areas.

How do you reach the teeth right at the back of your mouth when brushing?
I keep getting ulcers from brushing my teeth because my toothbrush keeps slipping and hitting the sides of my mouth and gums.
