I was told that I had a #5 pocket peridontal disease. At least, that's what I think I was told. Someone correct me if I didn't state that the correct way.
Anyhow, is it because I drink diet cokes and tea? Do I need to floss 3x per day? Take calcium? What can I do to STOP the bone loss and reverse the damage I've caused already.
My mother has been told she has some level of bone loss, should I be worried about osteoprosis?
If my mouth bones are weak, would braces at age 30 be a bad idea? I don't want them to pull my teeth from their sockets!
My dentist wants to do a gum wash which will cost $90 per quadrant after insurance. Is this very helpful?
