Hi Bob,
Sorry you are having such a problem.  Acupuncture might help and so might 
something called a 'cosmodic' unit as it is said to regenerate tissue.  If you 
are interested email me back channel.
PT

  carol,

       There are no safe implants.  ALL dental procedures have risks... BIG 
ONES.  Every time you get an anesthetic injection you are risking a permanent 
paresthesia/dysesthesia (nerve damage to the lingual or IAN nerve) that is 
horrific... I suffer from lingual nerve damage so I know.  The rest of my life 
is one of pain and suffering... burning pain to be exact.  Not something you 
want if at all possible.  

  Bob

    Hi all,
    Maybe off topic...who knows.  History of bad teeth, several crowns got 
loose and today another one popped out into mouth and holding it.  If he can't 
put this back in as it is always a challenge, here's questions:

    Kind of "safe" implants
    Questions to ask dentist
    What materials are good vs. bad for implants?

    This is ongoing problem-genetic vs. unhealthy eating.

    Frustrating as my dentist doesn't want to act like a traveling "dentist."  
Just when I think all is cool and I won't see him for a while I am back.  

    Renee or others, please pitch in your wisdom? Garrett? All?  Thanks.
