Dear Breezy55,
I, like you, and others have had nothing but teeth problems especially the last year and a half. Since April 1st last year I have had two crowns and at least 10 fillings done. I've had rsd now six years and I feel the meds have contributed to their demise. I have rsd in my mouth (everywhere it's full body). I owe my dentist $2,200.00 which will take me probably ten years to pay off. Thankfully he takes payments. I had another crown done a year ago and have had nothing but problems with it too (top back right side). Sat night the whole crown (tooth) just fell off!!! I have to wait til tomorrow or Wed to get it fixed as I have a stub for a tooth. I have needed root canal on it (and another tooth) for over a year now and have been fighting it. At $700.00 per tooth and no dental ins it gets real expensive. I never had problems with my teeth before rsd and would go months/years with no cavities. In October 2010 I went to bed without a cavity and woke up (several hours later) with a cavity. I have teeth crack and break constantly. Most decay seems to be starting at the gumline so I call dentist asap and get them filled.
Not only do we have constant pain but teeth problems too. The fun never stops. I do use Listerine Total mouthwash (it's purple) and is anti-cavity formula. I rinse every night with it. Good luck with your teeth. Oh, I even take calcium too. Nothing seems to stop it. kathy d
