Teeth?
The past couple of months my husband's teeth have literally begun falling apart. He has had two molars break off and another is questionable. The dentist said it could be due medication he had taken during treatment or anything that caused a dry mouth. Obviously he is not happy as she says there is nothing to fix and the roots must be taken out by an oral surgeon.Does anyone have a similiar experience or know anything about this and will he keep losing teeth! He was diagnosed in Feb of 2011 and had 1 X BEP and 2 X EP for his treatment, finishing up in April of that year. Since then he has been on survellience and all clear.
Thanks in advance for any info.
