Ok my wonderful dentist was on of the first doc to say I think you have PD. Even before a neuro or some of the silly nonsens of Doctor not knowing I had PD he know. Last few yr my teeth have changed. Pain sensitive. And caps needed to done. Believe you me I take good care of my teeth but the clinching and gripping at night has really caused bug issues. Anytime else have this and what do you do. I can not wear a mouth guard I chock on it at night. Ideas welcome
Aloha. Let me join this club. I'm having dental problems too. The PD has blessed me with Tardif Disconesia. I got 3 ulcers on my tongue about 2 years ago. ( probably caused by " dangerously low" B12) the constant chewing kept the ulcers open and growing. 2 of the ulcers got so bad that they removed 2 pieces of my tongue.m in the process I lost 55 lbs.
About 18 months ago I had a piece of my tongue the size of a dime removed. They had been great for about 6 months but now I have 3 again. I have had 1 tooth removed 3 months ago and am waiting for Medicaid approval to have another. The Oral Surgeon says the constant chewing is cracking the teeth. He gave me a heavy duty mouth guard but I chewed through it in 2 weeks. I don't see any real solutions out there right now. My Dr gave me some Rx to slow down the tardif but for now that's all I have. That's not true. It's not all I have. I have a loving God and a blog full of people to say " me too" and " we care". Thank you
Ok spoke to GP and DDS today going to have a new form of mouth guard made to help me. Will fill you all in when I get more info my be helpful for you all. Thank you
I am having a problem clenching my teeth. To the point of making my jaws hurt. Have not made an appointment yet. Thought it was just me. My fillings are falling out and some of my teeth have cracked.Plan to call tomorrow. Thank you
I had four fillings and one extraction before Christmas. I always looked after my teeth and didn't know why this happened. I have to swallow all day as my mouth keeps filling with saliva. I have found all answers to this question very helpful.
Thank you friend
