No disrespect to Vikki sen intended, but I thought there appeared to be many of us on this listserv that agreed that health care practitioners should not be on this listserv. I am not comfortable having a health care practitioner privy to these conversations nor do I wish to receive advice from any health care practitioner other than my own. I value this listserv for the community of people who can relate to my situation vis-a-vis celiac and gluten.

Do we have a moderator who can address this issue?

Thank you,

Tristan

Yes, ask the hygienist for a gluten-free toothpaste. My dentist has both but call ahead to make sure they do have it. If not, they should be able to get it in time for your apppointment.
