Hi All, well after 5 yrs. I am now having problems with teeth.. and bone loss. My dentist said I will need 3 teeth removed. This is not a happy thought for me.

Anyone else going through things like this? I thought I was doing good job taking care of my teeth but in about 8 months that all changed. It is on right side where the radiation was applied the most.

I will need to see a oral surgeon. I have been trying to find out more information on what I am going to go through.

Thanks Diane
