Mouth complications related to cancer treatment
 

Each year about 400,000 people (including many in the San Jose, Santa Clara and Sunnyvale areas) with cancer develop treatment-related complications in the mouth ranging from lesions to chronic dry mouth to bone disintegration.  If serious, these complications can be life threatening.  While many are unavoidable, some can be prevented or minimized by NuSmile Dental and Orthodontics.

NuSmile Dental and Orthodontics recommends that whenever possible, a pre-therapy dental evaluation with a full set of mouth x-rays be performed. Any decay, gum disease and abscesses should be treated, if time permits, prior to chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.

Even patients who have no pain or dental disorders need a thorough cleaning.  Our goal at NuSmile Dental and Orthodontics is to have the patient's mouth in optimal health prior to beginning anti-cancer therapy.

If you have questions regarding cancer treatment and your dental health, please call the office nearest you.
