A 38-year-old woman with severe periodontitis is in her 10th week of pregnancy. When the dental assistant tries to discuss oral

hygiene and future appointments for scaling, the patient becomes angry and says that she can live with bleeding gums and brown teeth from her former smoking habit. She also says that she is not interested in learning about hygiene because her teeth will eventually fall out anyway. How could the dental assistant convince this patient of the importance of oral hygiene?

Describe Inhalants appearance
hodyreva [135]
<h2>Answer: <u>Inhalants</u></h2><h2><em>What They Are: </em></h2>

<em>Inhalants are things that are breathed in to give the user an immediate rush, or high. They include glues, paint thinners, dry cleaning fluids, gasoline, felt-tip marker fluid, hair spray, deodorants, spray paint, and whipped cream dispensers (whippets). </em>

<em> </em>

<h2><em>Sometimes Called: </em></h2>

<em>whippets, poppers, snappers, rush, bolt, bullet </em>

<em> </em>

<h2><em>How They're Used: </em></h2>

<em>These are inhaled directly from the container (called sniffing or snorting), from a plastic bag (called bagging), or by holding an inhalant-soaked rag in the mouth (called huffing). </em>

<em> </em>

<h2><em>What They Do: </em></h2>

<em>Inhalants produce a quick feeling of being drunk — followed by sleepiness, staggering, dizziness, and confusion. Long-time users get headaches, nosebleeds, and sometimes lose their sense of smell. Inhalants decrease oxygen to the brain and can cause brain damage. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Using an inhalant just one time can lead to life-threatening health problems, and even cause death.</em>
