Abstract

Oral hygiene products are usually not classified as dental materials. Their use is at least in part regulated by other laws, such as regulations regarding cosmetics. There is, however, no clear borderline. Oral hygiene products may lead to oral and extra-oral symptoms, which patients or dentists may attribute to dental materials. To assist the dentist in the process of differential diagnostics, a theoretical background and clinical symptoms of adverse effects arising from oral hygiene products are presented in this chapter.
