How to Protect Your Oral Health
✔ Inform your dentist about all medications you take.
✔ Drink plenty of water throughout the day.
✔ Maintain excellent oral hygiene.
✔ Use sugar-free medications when available.
✔ Attend regular dental checkups.
✔ Never stop prescribed medications without consulting your physician.
Medications can play an important role in overall health, but some may have unwanted effects on teeth, gums, and oral tissues. Regular dental visits and proper oral care can help prevent complications and keep your smile healthy.
