Guest guest Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Hi Everyone, I am trying to discern if there is any connection between my taking Zoloft and cavities. I did research on-line and it did say that Zoloft can cause you to have dry mouth which can lead to more cavities but that doesn't seem to be the case here. My 11 yo daughter began Zoloft about 1.75 years ago. Before that she only ever had one very small cavity. Now her mouth is full of them. In one sixth month period between dental appointments, she went from having no cavity in one of her permanent molars to having almost half the tooth completely eaten away. During that sixth month period she brushed twice per day and flossed and mouth washed with a fluoride based mouth wash once per day. The dentist was dumbfounded because she does not have dry mouth. He said it was shocking and he had no idea why her teeth were rotting like that but that he would change medications. The doctor said it wasn't likely to be the zoloft, but that is the only thing that has changed. Have any of you experienced anything similar? Thanks!
