Just got back from the dentist

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone! I just got back. The dentist put the exray of my tooth

up on the screen and gave me a funny look and said that he wanted me

to go to this expert for a 2nd opion.

What I have he told me is very rare. Its called extral resorption.

My body has eaten away at the root below the bone line heading tores

the nerve. It is not decay. He wants it looked at right away and he

is pretty sure that the tooth is going to have to be pulled. I told

him that it really wasn't that sore. And he said that in the cases

he has seen. (He is 62)that they didn't even know anything was wrong

until found on exrays. We looked at my old exrays from right before

I had implants and my tooth was healty and normal. I asked him if

want I have been going through with my implants could have had

something to do with it, and he said I don't want to say anything

but it could have. Now I want all my teeth exrayed just to be sure.

Because if this happened to one tooth ???????????? And since he said

most people don't have symptoms.

God I wish I had found this web site before I put that poison in my

body.

Well that stinks, Cricket. I haven't heard of this before. I know there seems to be more dental problems with us, but wow, to have the tooth being eaten away at the root below the bone line? Did he say what causes that? Calcium leaching? Calcium malabsorption? Any clues?

By the way, how long did you have your implants? I checked the database, but not sure if you were listed or not (didn't see cricket, but is that your name?)
