Haveles: Evolve Resources for Applied Pharmacology for the Dental Hygienist, 7th Edition
Katie G. is a 29-year-old culinary arts student who comes to the dental hygiene clinic for a
routine prophylaxis. She notes on her medical history that she suffers from “heartburn” almost
every evening. Her chief complaint is stain on her anterior teeth, which she blames on her two-
packs-per-day cigarette habit and from drinking black coffee all day. Her blood pressure is
138/96, pulse is 90, and respirations are 15 per minute. During the intraoral examination, the
hygiene student notes severe erosion on the mandibular molars, and her throat and soft palate
are redder than normal. Katie medication history includes over-the-counter (OTC) antacids
taken to relieve her symptoms, oral contraceptives, and ibuprofen almost every day for
headaches.
