Breast cancer treatment can affect more than you might expect, including your mouth.
Chemotherapy, radiation, and certain medications may contribute to changes such as dry mouth, mouth soreness, gum irritation, or an increased risk of oral infection.
If you're undergoing cancer treatment, let your dentist know. Your dental team can help you navigate oral health changes and recommend ways to keep your mouth as comfortable and healthy as possible.
Your medical and dental care are both part of caring for you as a whole person. 💗
