Hello,

Thanks for your query on HCM

"As"per your clinical history is concerned please follow like this -

Do a clinical examination by your dentist and discuss about painkiller[ibuprofen]and antibiotics [Cefoxitin) for infection.

Do take few lifestyle modifications like this-

1)Try to use fluoridated drinking water.

2)Try to brush your teeth at least twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste.
Use dental floss or an inter dental cleaner to clean between your teeth on a daily basis.

3)Replace your toothbrush every three months, or whenever the bristles are frayed.

4)Try to eat healthy food, limiting sugary items and between-meal snacks.
Visit your dentist for regular checkups and professional cleanings.

5)Use an antiseptic mouth rinse to add an extra layer of protection against tooth decay.

Hope that helps
