Is toothache related to diabetes?

Patient's question:

My teeth often hurt very badly. It hurts whenever it wants to, sometimes it doesn't hurt for a few hours, and sometimes it lasts for one or two days. When it hurts, I can't eat anything, not even porridge. It feels like my teeth are about to fall out when it hurts. I want to ask if this is related to diabetes, and how should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: This is very serious, likely caused by diabetic complications such as diabetic neuropathy or diabetic peripheral vascular disease. It is recommended to undergo nerve electrophysiological tests and lower limb vascular ultrasound examinations to detect it early. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
