I dont think it is related. If you bring up alot of acid,then yes it may cause harm to your teeth. Your dentist should be able to advise you on that. No I havent ever tried the flush & I dont think I would want to either. It has helped some people though

No, don't think they are realted. Other then if your in so much pain that your clenching your jaw & teeth too tight. I had gallbladder surgery earlier this year & had no problems realted to teeth or gums. No one else I know has ever mentioned it either.
