Hi there was a post one day about MAC and dental visits. I am scheduled soon to have my teeth cleaned so what can you do to prevent being exposed to Mac - can you suggest bottled water to spray with. I wonder if and how often they clean the water tanks? I did not think about it before but now I am very concerned. Has anybody have any ideas?

I had 3 months AFB negative report before May but At May 25th I had tooth cleaning done. Then I collected sputum sample at end of May and sent it to lab on June 2nd. At middle of July my pulmonologist called me and said my June 2nd sputum AFB culture positive again. After read several MAC lung disease connections members I started thinking my June 2nd AFB positive very possible had something to do with dental work.My next dental appointment will be Nov. 27. I may better cancel it, wait a while and think what to do in the future.
