Just got back from the perio exam. Took full mouth xrays (should get a 1/2 off discount as there are only 50% of my teeth left heh.. in my dreams ! )
Scheduled on 3/25 for laser surgery and graft on most problematic quadrant to try to save a few molars.
I'm not as sure about going farther than that with any add'l surgery.
He'll give me a better idea about what he can do after he's looked at the x-rays in detail .... by my next visit.
We'll see.
I'm not gonna go thru what I went thru last time,
but will take a gamble & see if this one quadrant can be helped.

BTW it'll be $1425 after a discount (20% on part of it ) savings of $325 by joining the Careington dental plan for $7 a month. Its not a dental insurance, but a discount plan.
The AARP dental ins. is $52 a month and would pay for 50%, butwith a $1500 cap- per year (then 100%) and a deductible, that's basically a trade-off cause my problems will be waaay over the $1500 per year
My Medicare Part D, Rx plan is only $40 a month and saves me over $250 a month ($3K/yr) in Rx's.
