I Just Found Out It Can Affect Teeth And Gums? Anyone With This Issue
Hello LethaSurcouf, Yes I did! I had problems with my teeth I lost 2 teeth from the back. And that's when I started 15 yrs ago using vitamin D with calcium never again did I lose anymore teeth. Also use sensodyne teeth paste for sensitivity of my teeth/17 yrs later doing good. Hope this help/have beautiful morning.
Yes, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can indeed have an impact on oral health, including teeth and gums. While the context provided doesn't specifically mention dental issues, it's known that individuals with RA may experience a higher risk of oral health problems, such as periodontal (gum) disease. This is partly due to the Show Full Answer
The older I get, and the worse my RA gets, I'm finding more 'associated' illnesses. I am having issues with teeth and gums right now, but I am also facing shoulder replacement surgery next week, that means no dental work til I'm on the road to recovery. Teeth are real soft, they are cracking and falling apart. I also have Sjogren's which adds to the dental problem. Can't win!!
Sad

Going to the dentist in 2 wks.
Also having jaw issues
Antihistamines were causing gum bleeds for me. I would not be surprised to learn anything causing a problem. During a checkup I had a couple days ago a crown I had was discovered to have a crack? In 2 days I got it replaced, my insurance doesnt cover it. So the new porcelain crown I got on Monday is now something I get to pay out of pocket ($2k, the tooth also had a cavity)... I need to keep track of the record for the royal tooth in my tax stuff.
