Oral Health Care Kits
We have partnered with Side Effect Support, LLC, a company out of Wisconsin run by a dental hygienist with a commitment to finding evidence-based products for the prevention and management of oral complications. Founder of Side Effect Support, Jill Meyer-Lippert has used her knowledge of oral health as an RDH and experience with patients in treatment to thoughtfully select products for this project. These products are used in our oral care kits that help give individuals undergoing cancer care a jumpstart on needed supplies.
Visit Side Effect Support or check your local pharmacy to order these products.
