Let’s be honest… most people don’t read the 20 pages of size-6-font information that comes with a new prescription. 😅
But some of those side effects are important for your dental team to know about!
If you’re taking a GLP-1 medication, be sure to let your dentist know. Changes such as dry mouth, bad breath, bleeding gums, increased reflux/regurgitation, tooth wear or erosion, and sores that take longer to heal can affect your oral health.
The good news? Your dental team can help you recognize these changes early and take steps to protect your teeth, gums, and smile. ❤️
Taking care of your health includes taking care of your mouth, too!
