I too put off going to the dentist after dx 5+ years ago...I finally realized this year that it was OK to take care of my dental health also! Got the go-ahead from my onc, and yes, antibiotics were prescribed before each procedure: cleaning, 2 cavities filled, 2 crowns placed. I'm now on 6 month check-ups for gums, and am very happy about healthy teeth and gums again. It reflects my attitude about my goals for a healthy body, mind and spirit.

Love, Lolly
