A member asked:
Chlorhexidine gluconate oral rinse has no other side effect on me but tooth staining. implant dentist said it would be $150 to remove it. otc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dental Prophylaxis: Tooth staining from Chlorhexidine Gluconate (or from something else) can normally be removed with a thorough dental prophylaxis (tooth cleaning). Every dental office will have a somewhat different fee for this routine service. If extra time is involved due to unusual staining, a higher fee might be warranted.
