Sjögren’s Syndrome

I was diagnosis with Sjögren’s Syndrome 2 yrs ago and it has taken a toll on my teeth. I deal with the public and recently we had major cut backs at our store.

I do have dental insurance with the company, but I know out of pocket can be costly. Do you have a payment plan?

And, another thing is, I am a afraid of coming to the dentist.

Thank You
Angie Perez

Hi, Angie….


The dry mouth problems that go with Sjögren’s Syndrome can be difficult to live with, as there is often a lot of decay to deal with. You should be using a concentrated prescription fluoride to rinse and brush with – much stronger than regular toothpaste, and you should also have fluoride trays to fill up with fluoride each day – you can give yourself your own fluoride treatments and minimize dental problems.

You need a comprehensive dental exam to understand your situation and to understand your options for dental treatment. We do have outside financing, and we can help you to understand those options as well. Many people are scared of dental treatment, but we will be happy to work with you to help you get successful dental treatment. Give us a call.
