Hello, thank you for sharing your problem with us. As you have mentioned that you are taking these medication they does not cause any loosening of teeth, but you are diabetic this can lead to your problem of loosing of teeth.
Actually since long time researches are going on which proves that diabetes is related to periodontitis (inflammation of tooth supporting structures) and when then is inflammation of gums there will be loosing of teeth.
It will be much better that you visit your dentist and get cleaning of teeth done regularly, it will help you in maintenance of your oral hygiene.
