Help Needed!!!?

Question

I had an appointment with my dentist (my aunt) for a root canal and everything was fine until they took x-rays and the first one's didn't come out right so they took another pair of them and when they came back they said i had methamphetamine found all over my teeth
but the thing is i've never done methamphetamine as a matter of fact i've never seen it.
can someone tell me how it got there could it be put in food? and how long does it stay because i brush my teeth 3 times a day everyday. anyone think it was on the gloves?

Answer 1

HELLO ADAM,
AS A TRUE DENTIST I CAN TELL YOU FOR SURE THAT X-RAYS CAN'T SAY THAT YOU WERE ON CRANK.
THE THING YOU CAN SEE ON X-RAYS IS BONE DAMAGE AND BONE LOSS.
IN ALL THE YEARS AS A DENTIST I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THIS.
METHAMPHETAMINE DOES CAUSE BONE LOSS, BUT THIS IS AFTER YEARS OF BEING ADDICTED. IT DOES CAUSE BONE LOSS.
WHY THE BONE LOSS?
CRANKHEADS HAVE VERY POOR ORAL HYGIENE AND THE DON'T CAREFOR THE TEETH. THIS, IN TURN LEADS TO PERIODONTITIS AND BONE LOSS.
FYI: X-RAYS DO NOT SHOW ANY PARTICULAR CHEMICAL.

Answer 2

Hi! I've been in dentisty for over 25 years in the US and I have had patients that do cocaine, meth and other CDS. Some are very rich and some are middle or poor class. So I know what I speak of. This is a very bad joke and or a trick to get you to confess to someting you have not done. If THAT is the case I have a huge resentment towards your Aunt for playing such a trick and getting you so upset.
MOST of all, our jobs as healers is to help, not humiliate, embarress or trick and use the power to abuse another person. I am very angry it any of this is true!
Like the other dentist said, the only indicator of chronic durg abuse is horrible neglected teeth and diet. People have serious acne, poor bone structure and skin and hair as well as teeth from not eating or eating good foods and good oral hygiene. Just like alcoholics, that is the last thing on their minds. However, the rich typically eat very well and then snort. Most meth users act like the have ADD or ADHA and that may what you Aunt is wondering if you are the nervous or high strung type. I don't know. But I would switch dentists and when you get older tell her off.
I also want to tell you that the Xray finding of meth is pure BS. The Xray goes in your mouth in a sleeve of plastic and a thin lead shield. That is stripped off in a dark room and dipped to process by hand or in a machine. How would any powder or residue of anything even food be on that!!!
I am horrified at the possiblity this is a scare tactic to railroad you and humilate or back you in a corner. Personally I'm glad I do not know her or work with her because she would be very sorry when I got done telling her off and reporting her to the Dental Peer Review for malpractice.
Please calm down, this is bogus and think about why this was done. If you need any help, need to talk or have any questions, please ask for me, Marie D and I will help you in any way that I can. I mean that. I am still appalled and upset. Marie. PS I am so mad, my spell check broke

Answer 3

the only way it would be on the gloves is if the dentist handled some meth then examined your teeth.

different chemicals show up differently on xrays but alot of them share the same characteristics so unless your looking for something specific you cant tell the difference between meth or cyanide or a piece of food stuck in your teeth. also i don't think a dentist is qualified to make the call on whats on your teeth with out actually testing the substance

Answer 4

what???? I don't think x rays check for drugs. wow that is strange. I must say i don't beleive you do drugs or that it was on the gloves sorry????
