Yes and what people don't know is yes it is so strong to kill cancer that it destroys other things. Teeth, bones even the small bones in the ears. My cousin's daughter had lukemia and had chemo and now is nearly deaf, stunted her growth and she is 14 and the size of a 10 year old and nothing can be done to help her grow as growth hormones can cause lukemia. Her teeth are also shot from the Chemo. She is in a wheel chair as it destroyed the bones in her hips too.But she is alive and we are happy for that.

Depending on the type of chemo you are receiving.
Ask your dr. next time you are scheduled, or check out your
medications on line and look in adverse conditions.
Personally, I'd phone the dr. and see a dentist on a regular basis.
good luck

Yes, it does. The patient should get the're teeth cleaned and checked during this treatment.
