5 ADDITIONAL NOTES FOR SPEAKER – DO NOT PROJECT TO PARTICIPANTS Fluorides: Prescription and over the counter (OTC) Many types of fluoride therapies are known, ranging from at-home therapies (use of fluoridated toothpaste) to professionally administered, such as topical fluorides provided by dental offices, systemic fluoride and publicly sponsored fluoridation of water. At-home therapies can be further divided into over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription strengths. -OTC fluorides and mouth rinses should be recommended by the medical provider. -If prescription fluoride is necessary it is best that the patient is evaluated by a dentist followed by consultation between the dentist and medical provider. It would be best for the dentist to determine the form and frequency of fluoride prescribed. -Please visit the American Dental Association website for additional information www.ada.orgwww.ada.org What is the level of urgency to get this patient to a dentist?
