I've gotten to where I cannot eat any hard or crunchy food. my teeth, gums, and jaws start hurting. I end up not eating for a few days.

I use salt water, floss, and listerine until things settle down. no bleeding but lots of pain.

lyme maybe?

Just a thought - Do you need to supplement with calcium? If the long bones in your legs (tibula and fibula) ache then you have a calcium deficiency.

You could try magnesium.

I had this thing happen the past couple days where my neck and the bottom of my jaw were killing me -- I mean my whole neck, not just the back -- all the way up and down from my jaw to my collarbones.

The only thing that helped was a ton of magnesium right on the spot. I realized that's where my Lyme is so that's where it's eating the magnesium from. Maybe it's actually muscular? Try a magnesium water rinse?

You can even brush your teeth with milk of magnesia. Get the Dollar General brand .. not Phillips.

Does the milk of magnesia strengthen teeth?

I've been using bone broth and gelatin to strengthen teeth.
