hoping someone might be able to send me in the right direction for getting more information
... seems that i am having another cyst on my gums... the last time this happened, the dental hygenist kept "cleaning out my gums"... which seemed to help somewhat in the short-term.... but then it was found that the root of that tooth was "deteriorating"??? -- the tooth under the gums has mysteriously "dissolved and disintergrated", and it had to be pulled
i've seen in some of dr.klinghardt's papers where he recommends pulling teeth which already had root canals, because they are too susceptible to lyme problems... i guess that i was just "hoping" that maybe there was some "new information" that might prove useful??
my dentist is very holistic and open-minded and his wife and one of his top other dentists also have lyme... it's just that they are closing their office beginning on friday (until after new year's?) so it would be helpful to get information soon! -- thanks so much -- teresa

Google "lyme tooth pain". There is an article stating that 70% of lyme patients have dental pain but no dental disease. The pain is due to neuritis from lyme. Further research may shed some light on your specific situation.

I used MMS for a time and one of the most dramatic improvements I experienced was with my teeth.
Since I have Crohn's disease oral problems are almost a given. In my case gum bleeding and receding gum lines were always an issue. When they did their measurements for gum disease I only stayed steadily bad or it got worse.
When I used MMS I swished it around my mouth and swallowed it. The dentist appointment after that produced an improvement in gum condition that impressed the dental hygienist. I told her why I had the improvement and she wrote down what I used.
You can use this without swallowing it and get similar improvements. As a matter of fact there is at least one mouthwash with small amounts of Chlorine Dioxide in it. I can't remember the name right now.
Something to consider before pulling teeth.
