Thanks, it’s good to know that they are taking measures of the water system.
For me also is being a while that I don’t go. But I need it, just a concern if I am going to be able to hold my mouth open, coughing or breathing issues…I don’t know really, it’s going to be a challenge but we have to try anyway….

I remind my hygienist about not having water sprayed in my mouth. She will use the water device without air (makes it spray) so that it provides a small stream without spray and she keeps it toward the front of my mouth and uses a minimal amount of water.

Hi There!
Re: Dental Work
All through my journey with NTM/MAC (almost 2 1/2 years) and the constant cough, I was able to have needed dental work.
I discussed my situation with the Dentist and she and her staff were very patient with me. Hope that will be the case for you!
