YES YES YES, my dentist tells me for many reasons yes, first, MS is a disease where your own bodies defense system (T-Cells) attack your body, this makes sense that it causes your teeth to go bad.

Second, EVERY MS med causes tooth decay.

I a facing almost 20K in dental work, I am meeting with people on Thursday to have all my teeth replaced with implants.

Sorry to make your night....
