Just recieved my dental assessment.
The assessment was done by consultant in special care dentistry,and a consultant in special care +specialist in oral surgery.
I have eight teeth that need sorting
a) REMOVING COMPLETELY
b)RETAINED WITH A ROOT FILLING replaced by a denture
c)CROWN AND ROOTCANAL TREATMENT
There are several factors as to why I'm in this postion thats not what bothers me.
As I feel uncomfortable having dental work done I have asked for sedation and local aneasthetic.
A meeting of the above consultants,consultant Anaesthetist and my wg consultant
came to the conclusion that it would only be done one tooth at a time with follow ups through the healing proccess.Also with the addition of two intravenously given antibiotics followed by a week of oral anti b.
Due to the high risk of osteonecrosis or leaving a large non-healing area Im having a meeting with the consultants to decide which path I want to go .
Would appreciate any advice ,sorry its such a long post but was the only way to give you the full picture Thanks for help DEEx
ps the three options above are available for each tooth.
