Re: Root Canal Leaking Pus
My parents both had horrible oral hygiene and both had dental insurance. I had insurance a few times, but, I'm trying so hard to keep my teeth. I have one implant and need two more and my one bridge cut. If you want to take up a collection for me, feel free! I need $4500 to start and $6500 total. I take care of my teeth. I always have dental floss and one of those one use toothbrushes with me and chew Trident White wintergreen gum. Medications can affect the teeth, too. I never thought about taking birth control pills for years could have caused some of the damage since my body thinks it's been pregnant.

Re: Root Canal Leaking Pus
My teeth were superstars until I hit my mid-twenties. All the molars are now gone. And not all root canals "take". Dental fistulas are common, got one from a root canal years ago. My sister has to drain infection from a dental fistula from a now dead tooth every now and then. She was running on an asphault portion of a playground in kindergarten when her friend caused her to fall face first, ramming her teeth through her lip. She has all natural teeth, including wisdoms. My teeth got a little worse with pregnancy as well...which is one of the reasons prenatal vitamins are encouraged. |
