ELna,

The ellaclinic would be my first and only choice based on the list you shared. That dentist is educated in the toxicity, toxicology and oral systemic connection which are huge PLUSES!! He makes emphatic statements about all of those issues and works with complimentary practitioners. He does perform root canals and uses a laser to help with the sterilization of the tooth. However, he also wants the patient to be well informed about the risks of root canal therapy and gives reference to that subject. He is into nutrition and full body health. YES, if you can, please seriously consider going to him.

The oral surgeon that you booked an appointment with seems very well versed on various surgical techniques. I think the one problem you may run into with most dentists that you see will be regarding the surgery that involved the cheek tissue. Most dentists are going to be a bit hesitant to mess with that because they cannot be sure what he did exactly and they don't want to end up taking the blame for any further complications. So it is important that when you approach this topic with any of them, that you do not sound like you are accusing the other dentist of any wrong doing. As that will cause further hesitation on their part. Just let them know that this is truly uncomfortable and you are concerned about living with this and what it can become. I hope I have explained that okay.........

Regarding the closing of the sinus perforation.............. I HOPE YOU ARE CORRECT and it is healing!! Yes, vitamin C is truly a miracle healer and antioxidant. However, it is imperative that you drink lots of water throughout the day because without adequate hydration, excessive oral vitamin C over a period of time can turn to little crystals in the kidneys. So drink water..... water.... water!!!

There are three with a website:
http://www.w1dental.com/
http://www.adelaidedentallounge.co.uk/
http://theellaclinic.com/
Would you really have a look and tell me who looks the most genuine please? Thank you so much!

After my visit at the hospital on the 13th July and the promise of two operations and 4 surgeons declaring that there is zero chance for it to heal without operation, I decided I will grow the hole in by myself because there's no one I can trust with operating on me
Raised my vitamin c to 8000 a day, added 30 mg of zinc, used the bioptron lamp three hours a day and every awaken minute visualised the hole to be growing in. I imagined how at first the sides of it are just holding hands then folding arms then put their faces together until they're in full hug. I also imagined myself over and over being ecstatically happy finding out it healed. I also followed my (non-)eating regime. Spent a good amount of time crying and trying hard not to have a nervous breakdown.
Went to another hospital this Tuesday and doing the nose pinch exercise the surgeon could not hear air coming. My nose still gets wet while drinking and I'm quite sure I can not blow my face up (too scared to try), but he said that he definitely would not open this up and that I should carry on not sneezing and blowing the nose for another 4 weeks, watch out for sinus troubles for another 2 months, but that it seems to be healing now. He did not believe it was minimum 5x5 mm last week.
I do know it is not closed yet but at least I have some hope now. And time to recover emotionally for a while even if it turns out I would need the op in the end (no no).
My gums is an issue, it stretches and hurts. I was told by this surgeon again to give it a couple of months to stretch and get better but I think they're just not comfortable with doing anything about it and it does not seem important enough for them. But for me it's painful, uncomfortable and depressing.
I booked an appointment to see him: http://lukecascarini.com/
Next week. I will follow his advice on both questions. I'm not eating (I do get nutrition) anyway so might as well spend the money elsewhere.
About NHS - the extractions and the first two surgeries were all done at a private practice. Then I turned to NHS because it is the same chance to find someone good or bad as to go to another private. But then I decided to go for one of the bests as the outcome will remain with me forever and I'm only 38.
And if I was lucky enough to almost fully recover from total facial paralysis that RHS caused last year, I can not loose my smile and face on the same side just yet.

I'm sorry it looks like I'm writing a novel to you now. Thank you again for all your kindness, patience and help.
