Re: OT: Cost of cavitation

[Guest guest]

I was quoted $1500 per cavitation. Which I cannot afford...

You shouldn't have teeth moving from cavitation surgery, all they are

doing is opening up the gum with a tiny incision and removing the

infected tissue and bone. Then it can heal and grow new bone/tissue.

Removing teeth can cause that though.
