Guest guest Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 Matt (14) is having surgery today because of dental problems undiagnosed for quite some time. He has a cyst (growing from ear to ear) on the lower jaw. Seems to be related to the problem of aspie kids who still have baby teeth in their teen years. Seems this cyst absorbs the teeth and even the jawbone when undiagnosed. The cyst does not appear on regular yearly xrays only on the panoramic xray ordered by the oral surgeon. Appeared as a dental abcess, then had characteristics of osteomyelitis. Has anyone out there had this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a great Thanksgiving. in Florida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
