A visit to the dentist to have your teeth checked — fillings put in or teeth that need to be pulled out— all that should be done prior to radiation starting. Have you had fluoride trays made? You will need to wear the trays nightly to bolster the health of your teeth, probably for a long time. Dentists also advise patients to use a high enamel toothpaste like Prevident 2000. The best is to visit your dentist and ask him to contact your RO and ask what he needs to do for you.
