WHAT CAUSES A PERSON'S TEETH TO CRUMBLE WHEN THEY SNEEZE?

Dr Ben Atkins, trustee of the Oral Health Foundation, said it is possible Miss Grant has underlying condition causing her teeth to fall out, but it is likely that the problem is related to her diabetes.
He told MailOnline: 'The diabetes can attack the bones holding the teeth to the jaw.
'If I was her dentist, I’d order X-rays to find out if her bones are weak.'
People with diabetes are also more prone to gum infections, which can further weaken the bones and the teeth, he added.
He said poor oral hygiene is to blame for the holes in her teeth.
He said: 'If you don’t eat any sugar, you wouldn't get holes in your teeth.
'She says she doesn't eat any sugar, so the questions is does she know she's eating sugar?
'There are hidden sugars in everything - ther are 60 - 70 words for sugar which is confusing for consumers.'
In terms of treatment, Dr Atkins said he would first try to manage Miss Grant's pain, by extracting her rotten teeth.
He said: 'I can see a big hole in one picture, and that hole is letting bacteria getting into her body.
'It’s no wonder she's feeling ill and in pain.
'If she has that tooth out she’ll start feeling better.'
Then, he would try to help her improve her oral hygiene, which would stop the damage getting worse and help prevent infection.
'If you improve your hygiene things will improve.
'I'd start talking to her about cleaning her teeth twice a day, spitting out the fluoride toothpaste rather than rinsing it out with water, and making changes to her diet to reduce sugar levels.'
