Well…as you know, I’ve spent 800 bucks out of pocket and almost 300 bucks from my insurance on my teeth so far and after all the heavy duty cleaning and using an antibiotic for a few weeks, I think they have made surprising progress in getting rid of the pain I had every day…and I can even eat cold foods without wincing from the sensitivity to it that I had on both sides….I do know I need to have the one loose tooth removed since there is no bone there anymore but I think I’m going to put off having the others with bone loss removed since they are not loose and I may be able to keep them for a few years if I can keep the infection at bay….so far, I’m pretty happy with the progress in stopping the damage and getting rid of the pretty intense pain I felt every day…so, I’ll keep my fingers crossed that the improvement continues…I do know that it takes me about 15 minutes to do my teeth each time twice a day but I think it’s worth it so far…
