Default New here, RSD, dental decay and bone loss
Hi all,
I am new here and have searched the threads hoping to find an answer. I developed RSD after an accident. I was at the dentist for a cleaning and what I thought was a cavity only to discover that since the accident I have developed severe dental decay along the back molars and deep bone loss in the right jaw. The dentist wants to "save" what he can, so of course he is suggesting root canals, and implants. I am wondering if I am better off with extraction and a dental prosthesis.
Any suggestions? Also, if anyone knows of a Dentist familiar with RSD and its implications in the NYC, Westchester NY area I would be greatful.

Thank you,
TevyesDaughter
