teeth

[Guest guest]

Nicolas had to have his front baby teeth pulled, too. For a little

while there, he had a double row of teeth...

He went to an oral surgeon and was anesthetized -- this was about a year

and a half ago. It took about ten minutes and the recovery time was

pretty much nonexistent. Now one of his permanent teeth is coming in on

the bottom -- way behind his baby teeth, maybe a quarter inch. Looks

incredibly painful. I'm sure we'll have to do some more pulling, and

I'm also pretty sure he's going to end up with really crooked teeth.

His permanent teeth look huge in his little mouth. Luckily, we have a

really good dentist who specializes in special needs patients -- he

actually has a degree in special ed as well as dentistry. Have to drive

a bit to see him, but it's worth it.

Hi ,

Zeb's roots are long too. I think it's a ds thing with the weird teeth.

is a brave child! Glad he did fine. I tend to get more worked up than Zeb

when it comes to dental and medical procedures. How's your bed? I ordered new

matresses last week and I was thinking of you the entire time LOL.

Muscle tension usually activates all frequencies, though it can be more obvious

in the higher end of the spectrum.

Try paying attention to your mouth, just watching it, during training and see

you your scoring goes.

Hello--

I've notice that when I'm training myself, I often jiggle my teeth. (not

quite gritting them, but just moving them sideways) I have been doing this

probably for several minutes before I notice. When I quit, I don't notice

any change in the brain mirror, thermometers, or graphs above or below,

including delta.

Is there any frequency more likely to be affected than another?

Thanks,

I broke 3 teeth last year before my diagnosis. I had healthy teeth up til

then. My dentist said that it could be caused from all the high extended fevers

that I had been having for months and months. Hope this helps.

Hey Suzie before I got Medicare, I had state funded insurance. they payed for the dental glasses etc.. You got some thing like that up there..Boosuzie <suzieandsandy@...> wrote:

Hi Barb, I live in north-west Ontario. It'd cost more for the round trip than the dentures - plus the fact that the Canadian dollar is worth about 70% of the American one makes me glad I don't need dentures just yet. Welfare used to pay for dentures - I don't think they still do but I'm pretty sure Disability does, we'll see what happens with my appeal first. Thanks for the suggestioon.

Yes, we've discussed this before on the List. My dentist advised swishing

the mouth with baking soda, salt, and water for 60 seconds twice a day to

kill bacteria and neutralize the acids caused by eating.

I hope he is on Xylitol rather than sugar, Acid can cause v bad

cavities if you can wait and let new teeth come naturally would be

better than taking such drastic step unless its the only option.

Seema,

No we're not on Xylitol, he doesn't get much sugar so I'm not too

concerned about it. Where we went wrong it seems was giving him lots

of juice and also giving him the Vitamin C after brushing his teeth at

night.

Hi,

ph is 7 yrs old actually almost 8... has most of his front permanent teeth

and they are beautiful... white...

He fevered to 107.5 each episode until 3-4 and now only goes to 104.5.

He did have some inflammatory issues with pulp... not sure if it is related to

the disorder... but color is perfect.

Hi there

My son is nearly 15. He has had fevers since 1month. Last one was last

week. His teeth are mottled and lined from fevers when he was little.

Although his teeth are very strong and he has never had a cavity, and the

dentist says they are beautiful, strong teeth.

Hi there Pam

Episodes are much more spaced out now. Josh hasn't had a big full blown one

for about a year and then out of the blue whammy. Josh still gets a mouth

full of ulcers and enlarged nodes each month, but not the extreme fevers.

This time is had just so many ulcers that he could hardly talk, and high

fever lasting about 4 days. Still typically seemed to be brought on by an

extra exciting and tiring time, as Josh had just been away for a week to the

Heart Children's Teenagers camp.

( He has Long Q T syndrome, which is unrelated to Pfapa).

It does get so much better as they get older although Josh didn't stop

monthly fevers until about 7years.

It certainly was easier to cope with as a family when Josh was old enough to

verbalise what was happening. How often he woke us in the middle of the

night to tell us that he had pins and needles in his mouth and throat,

always a good clue that fevers and ulcers were coming.

As he got older he would just get up and get himself some panadol and put

himself back to bed unless he couldn't cope. He is now a very tolerant easy

going teenager who has endless patience. Certainly is character building for

whole family, if you survive it.

I don't think anyone has the real answers for how long this lasts, and

weather it will be part of a life long thing or you will grow out of it.

Josh has had high HID readings so they were never sure if it was HIDs or

. However he is nearly 6 foot now and still never gets real bugs so

that must be a plus, and we have had to learn to just take things a day at a

time.

You are doing the best thing you can for him, being with him through to hard

nights, and continually looking for better ways of treatment for him.

All the best

What issues did you have with your vision?

It's so hard to know what is related to the fevers and what are normal

childhood issues!

[Guest guest]

My prescription changed every time I had a fever for several years. I probably

started off with convergence insufficiency and overtime it became extropia which

I basically means my eyes don't always work together. It can become pronounced

when I am tired. When I was 6 or 7, I started to see double and had to have

prisms put on my glasses but that got better in a few years. I just recently had

an eye exam and was asked if the fevers might have contributed to my vision

issues. The optometrist (who is also a good friend) said that when we get high

fevers our bodies shut down and it may have impacted the way my eyes function.

She suggested vision therapy for me because there is nothing wrong with my eye

muscles but there are issues with the way my brain and eyes work together.

She suggested checking out the following websites: covd.org, oep.org and

optometrists.org. What type of vision issues does your daughter have? It is

really hard to see what is

related and what isn't.
