You would definitely need to have any questionable teeth removed or you will have alot of problems later. I has 3 teeth pulled before radiation. All my other teeth were fine, but now I have alot of problems with them. Dont let cost influence yor decision, this is your health. Talk to your doctors about your concerns, they may be able to help with referrals or something.
