Re: RESEARCH - Association of periodontal disease andtooth loss with RA in the US population

I had the tooth extracted today w/out general anesthesia! I am so proud of

myself! The doctor asked when I would be resuming my meds and then told me

" Let's do it while you are off Humira and Arava " Okay, when? " How about NOW? "

LOLOLOL I feel so brave. I saved alot of $$ too that will go towards my bridge!

I am SO glad to know this!! Kami, I, too have had similar problems but when I

questioned my RA doctor, he did not know of anything that would cause the two to

be related!!! No offense to the medical community BUT that's what I get for

living in a small town!!!  I have had several (back) teeth extracted that had

already had root canals and been crowned!!!  The money that went down the

drain!!! One tooth had been crowned TWICE!!

As we speak my girlfriend is walking around with no front teeth because she lost

her bridge, she looks like the Great Pumpkin and I guess I look a little like

the retired version of Charlie Brown. We're a great looking couple (puke). She's

getting fitted for a partial plate (really, I can't wait 'till she gets it so I

can quit being supportive!).

My husband recently lost his dentures, both bottom and top. They were

in his jacket pocket, and he took off his jacket and I guess they fell

out. He wasn't too upset, because he wanted some new ones anyway. He

goes to this place where they fit you and make the teeth that day. And

they don't charge you an arm and a leg, but you have to pay cash.
