Dima Bader, DDS

Dr. Dima Bader Dentist and Oral Medicine Specialist · Medical Reviewer, Oral Health Dr. Dima Bader is a dentist specialising in oral medicine, the branch of dentistry concerned with diagnosing and managing diseases of the mouth — mucosal conditions, oral pain, dry mouth, ulceration, and the oral manifestations of illnesses elsewhere in the body. That specialty matters for a health publication. A great deal of what appears in the mouth is not a dental problem at all. Persistent ulcers, changes in the tongue, unexplained dryness and gum changes can point to autoimmune disease, nutritional deficiency, diabetes, medication side effects or, occasionally, something more serious. Readers searching for an answer about a sore in their mouth are often asking a broader question than they realise. Dr. Bader reviews our oral health coverage: everyday dental care, common conditions and treatments, oral pain, and the point at which a symptom in the mouth warrants investigation beyond the dental chair.
