🎀 Breast Cancer Awareness Month is also a reminder that your oral health matters.
When we think about breast cancer treatment, dental health might not be the first thing that comes to mind.
But here's something worth knowing... 🦷
Certain cancer treatments, including chemotherapy, can affect your mouth, too.
💗 Dry mouth, which may increase cavity risk
💗 Mouth sores and sensitive gums
💗 Changes in taste
💗 Increased risk of oral infections
And when your mouth hurts, even simple things like eating, drinking, or brushing can become difficult.
That's why dental care is an important part of whole-body care. 🤍
If you're preparing for or undergoing breast cancer treatment, let your dentist know. Your dental and oncology teams can work together to help protect your oral health.
This October, we're raising awareness about the connection between oral health and overall wellness.
