Please don't forget to floss

Hello Ladies,
You can try a mouthwash made with seaweed extract from the natural food store. It helped my mom quite a bit. I recommend to my patients small sips of water frequently, sugar free lemon candies. It is important to floss during chemo(carefully) because cavities can set in easily and inflammation of the gums can be painful from gingivitis when your mouth is so dry. Hope that helps
