Due to my increasing anxiety I managed to get an earlier appointment. My dentist confirmed I have roughly 50% bone loss on two teeth and wants to do 3 monthly cleanings, but told me I have no risk of loosing these teeth anytime soon. I did ask for a referral to a specialist periodontist near me to consider potential grafts, which he is doing today. The teeth aren’t loose at all, and the appointment is still fresh. But am I right to calm down slightly now? I’m still massively on edge as I trust my dentist but my mind is still going non-stop that I’ll lose my teeth soon. I’ve been given some mood stabilisers so the thought of having a bridge/implants in a few years isn’t as daunting, but if anyone has been through similar, or had similar patients - all and any advice/insight would be beyond appreciated just to ease my mind!
