Abstract
The prevalence of dental disease may be extensive in patients with RLS because of diminished salivary flow resulting from the medications used to treat RLS. Patient education, saliva substitutes and anticaries agents are indicated. Special precautions must be taken when prescribing or administering sedative-hypnotic agents that are likely to have adverse reactions with the medications used to treat RLS.
