Hi again I know this is most likely the wrong place to be but I can't sleep. I am so nervous.On the 5th of March I have to have my remaining teeth pulled. Normally that wouldn't scare me, however My old dentist told me that because my mouth was so dry my teeth rotted at the gum line and could snap off. But when I first started going to him he told me that I could end up in Atlanta in a bubble if I have them removed. He said due to infection.That was in 2007. Now,2009, he was going to pull them hisself but I couldn't pay for him to do it. I am going through a charity of sorts, a wonderful church is paying for them to be removed, but with a dentist they use, which I know of him here in Columbus but never went to him. Should I be afraid that I will end up in Atlanta in a bubble? How can my gums heal if I have no saliva? Brenda
