Helllo Rivkah,


With RSD/CRPS there is often loss of bone density/osteoporosis so this could explain your jaw problems. Teeth do react very quickly to any illness in the body, with RSD and the medications we take this just makes matters worse. Smoking will also cause discoloured, unhealthy teeth.
I had a beautiful white, healthy smile 10 years ago. Now I have discoloured and chipped teeth as do just about most people I have met with RSD/CRPS.
I think taking calcium and fluoride supplements may help and of course good Dental Hygiene will go a long way in keeping our smile dazzling.

Nice to meet you and lots of luck with your teeth, I hope you have a really good and understanding dentist. Mine is since I supplied him with 6 pages of information about RSD.
Love Tayla
