Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 There is a good book out there called the Fibromyalgia Dental Handbook by Flora Stay, D.D.S. You may want to see if your local library carries it or if you doctor might buy it for patients such as yourself. I found it helpful. mncjl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Thanks for the book title. I think I'm going to have to check that out because I'm going to have to go get my teeth cleaned soon.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Thanks for that info! I have so much to update my dentist on, they'll be in shock.....lolol.....fibro, COPD, cardiac artery disease (can we say pre-med for the rest of my life? yippee!) and diabetes. Then they can be on the lookout for anything that starts to happen. I don't like going but make myself go every 6 months. I consider it my example to my kids.......lolol....

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hi , I borrowed it from my local library a couple years ago. I know there was a big section on how to choose a good dentist. She also comprehensively covers all of the many serious dental manifestations commonly associated with fibromyalgia-including tartar, burning mouth syndrome, jaw problems, dry mouth, and unwarranted oral sores. This book fills a much-needed niche as a handy resource for everyone coping with fibromyalgia, as well as dental professionals seeking to help their patients with the condition. I read it when I developed burning mouth syndrome. Again, no cause or cure. But, there was some good advice in the book. I believe she also carries her own product line of some toothpaste and mouthwash called Fibrosmile or something like that. I think she took out Salicylate as an ingredient that worked with the Guaifenesin Protocol that Dr. Armand created. I use all the Biotene products - toothpaste and mouthwash for dry mouth. I use the mouthwash multiple times a day and gargle with it regularly as I also have a chronic sore throat that to no avail can be fixed even at the Mayo clinic. Hope that helps . I'm sure they sell it on Amazon, but I would think your library would carry it or your doctor could buy it. Due to fixed income, I would never recommend someone spend money on books that they don't personally need to have in their own library at home. Blessings for a good day! mncjl > > >There is a good book out there called the Fibromyalgia Dental Handbook > >by Flora Stay, D.D.S.
