Hi Dr. Gallant,
Is it recommended for HIV+ patient to get teeth whitening using trays and opalescence gel? CD4 548. Got also check implant with Bioalchamid. What would you recommend?
Thanks
Response from Dr. Moyle
Sorry this is not Dr Gallant's forum but I can answer: it would not be a problem. Your dentist should always be told of you HIV status but it would not impact this treatment
Kind regards
Dr Moyle
