I read somewhere on the net that unexplained dental problems is a symptom of lyme or one of the co infections. Has anyone had these problems and if so, did you find anything to help?

I've had unexplained dental problems probably about ten years after infection. I had very healthy teeth with very good oral hygien. My supposedly healthy teeth with no cavities started abscessing in the roots...I actually had one tooth that was pulled due to severe abscess and when it was pulled out it was cracked in half all the way to the root! No explanation for it!

Since then I've had almost all of my molars pulled except the first molars.. and am still in need of a cavity to be filled in one of them and a crown put on another one. My dentist told me that I did not have anymore protective coating on my teeth (the name of that coating escapes me right now...It's gonna bug me until I think of it!)

With Him we "live" no matter the circumstances. At His feet peace of mind can be found. Peace that passes all understanding is my quest now and forever.

the son of one of my mom's friends had severe dental problems and serious dental surgeries-after that he was diagnosed with lyme and his dental problems were attributed to this. Best of luck. An aside to this-i had so many problems years ago and i found out i had a lousy dentist-once i switched and he corrected some problems my teeth have been fine-best of luck to you

lack of enamel could be from acids in your diet or your system. Lymies tend to be acidic. Start using pronamel toothpaste and fluoride rinses

Thanks! My dentist told me there was nothing that would help. pronamel toothpaste really helps? I guess I can't get any enamel back but maybe keep what i have! And thanks for the WORD I COULD NOT REMEMBER "ENAMEL" LOL

Tara,

Pronamel fights the acids from daily eating. It wont give it back but it will protect and strenghten what you have. Fluoride will help to protect from new cavities.

If you suffer from dry mouth there are products you can use to moisturize the mouth and cut back on the acids. Oral balance is my favorite for over night. Its a gel you rub on your gums before bed to replace the saliva you dry up.
