Guest guest Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Our 10 yr old with (high func.aspergers) was complaining about a tooth that hurt. We took him to a regular dentist to have his teeth cleaned and examind. We requested mininal amount of x-rays (2 bite wings). The results came up 6 cavities I know our son couldn't handle any drilling or pulling of teeth. Does anyone know of a safe option for him? The denist said he would just pull the 2 larger cavities (teeth) out because the adult teeth are coming through. What type of filling for the smaller cavities would be safe? Of coarse the dentist had to give me the reason our son had so many cavities as he was reminded of our request of NO FLORIDE before they started the cleaning. He said this is what we see in children who do not have floride. I then told him my theory..... " Maybe it could be due to almost 3 yrs. of leaky gut due to his vaccines. I then reminded him that our 2 other children 17 and 24 yrs have NEVER had floride. Neither of them have had any cavities either. I have to wonder if the DMSA or supplements could cause cavities as our son could never swollow any pills. Any help would be appreciated! Frustrated Mom!
