Dental office
personnel may be among the first to notice a person's Meth use. The
drug is corrosive to teeth, and the lifestyle of many users also leads to
damage. The affect is so well known that 'Meth Mouth' has become a
common description. All dental
office staff should know the basics of Meth and its impact on patients.
They should also be familiar with behaviors common to many Meth users.
