possible toothache

[Guest guest]

Dana,

Have you ever dealt with tooth pain? If so, what did you do? It has been

suggested to me that the issue with my son (17) headbanging has tooth pain. He

is scheduled for the dentist in 2 weeks. My other son had to have impacted

wisdom teeth removed at 17. Does it sound reasonable? Also, the therapist I have

been talking to at the TEACCH center said she had known 2 other boys about the

same age with similar actions and they both had abcessed teeth, even though the

outside looked fine. Also, when I was younger, I had a condition the dentist

called T-cavities. The outside tooth looked fine but the inside of the tooth was

gone. His recent hair test showed he was extremely low on strotium(I think) but

calcium was in the minimum normal range. Twice while he was in pain I think I

heard him whisper " teeth " . I am going to call the dentist this morning and see

if I can hurry up these xrays.

Thanks,

Drissia
