Just wondered if any of you have noticed any change in your dental.

Yes, I had been taking other meds which do cause dry mouth and any med that causes dry mouth can ultimately make our teeth more prone to decay.
But I had been taking those other meds for a substantial amount of time and everything was ok.
During my 8 month (nightmare) on Lyrica is when the rapid tooth decay came on and I've had to have teeth pulled because they were beyond saving.
Thankfully I was able to catch one in time and salvaged it with simple filling.

Lyrica IMO is a drug that came straight from the pit of HE**

I hope you are having better luck with it.
Just make sure your dental is current and checked often.
I agree totally. Lyrica has got to. be the worse reaction to a med in my life. My vision is almost baack to normal I swelled up huge and sob only on it 2 weeks. It is wicked drug
