Im diabetic i noticed a gap btw my front teeth plz advice?

Q. Hi am 23 year old female, i have type 1 diabetes. i have recently noticed that i am getting a small gap in between my front two teeth, its only small but i am really self conscious am find myself looking at the mirror every hour or so. what would you recommend. thank you

A. It is common for diabetic patients to be unable to fight infection once they get it as well as a completely healthy individual.this is why there is usually a higher occurrance of gum disease . it is possible this applies to your case as a minor gum inflammation.
i would advise a good clean  by a hygienist and allowing time for the gum to heal as it may only be a minor fluctuation in the tissue
