Guys and Gals,

Thanks for all of the information. I had the panoramic x-ray done last week. I have to go in for a consultaion before we decide on anything. This should occurr this week. I'll let "yunz" know what all of the medical professionals say. I've heard of the ORN before. My ENT explained it to me. And I will ask him to explain it again.
