| | Mouth care during chemotherapy : Cancerbackup |
 | | The likelihood of developing a sore mouth varies from treatment to treatment and your doctors and nurses will be able to tell you how likely this will be with your particular type of chemotherapy. |  | | Taking painkillers for mouth pain may be necessary for a while, but as the number of white blood cells in your blood increases and your immunity improves, the sores will heal and you will then be able to stop taking the painkillers. |  | | An oral assessment guide can be useful for all patients who have mouth problems or who are at high risk of developing them. |

| | Dog Mouth vs. Human Mouth |
 | | So a bite from a human mouth full of harmful bacteria may very well be more damaging than a dog bite, even if the dog's mouth is full of harmful dog germs. |  | | According to a widespread notion, a dog bite is the better choice since a canine mouth is cleaner than a human mouth. |  | | The kind of bacteria found in a human mouth and a dog mouth depend on what's been there recently. |

 | | The condition, known to some as "meth mouth," has been studied little in academic circles and is unknown to many urban and suburban dentists, whose patients are increasingly focused on cosmetic issues, the bleaching and perfect veneers of television's makeover shows. |  | | Unlike other drugs or candies or vices in most dentists' memories, methamphetamine seems to be taking a unique and horrific toll inside its users' mouths. |  | | But other dentists, especially those in the open, empty swaths of land where methamphetamine is being manufactured in homemade laboratories, say they are seeing a growing number of such cases. |
