Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Xerostomia often goes undiagnosed and unmanaged. Failure to properly deal with this condition leaves patients at greater risk for other problems. Dentists have the opportunity, the expertise, and the obligation to identify and manage xerostomia and its complications. This article presents a practical approach to diagnosis and treatment of xerostomia and its complications. |
