One third of the adults in the United Sates has high blood pressure. If you have high blood pressure, or hypertension, you know how important it is to take your medication on a regular basis.  But did you know your blood pressure medication can cause side effects in your mouth such as dry mouth or a change in how your food tastes? Be sure to tell your dentist if you are being treated for hypertension and be specific about what medicines you are taking!
