Q.

Dear My Dunn,

I have been experiencing tooth pains recently and had wondered why. I think It is down to my diet and sugary things i drink. I do not smoke or any of that. I do not drink alcohol excessvely either. I contemplated that as everything in my mouth is physically conected then the prblems and reasons may be also. the teeth are aching somewhat as i say but i wondered if this could have anything to do with my gum? could my diet affect my gums health as they do my teeth? thanks Dr, your time is appreciated
