I hate going to the dentist. I have to have someone come with me to make sure I don't run. It's just the whole way things go. I have major health issues (autoimmune) and that came w sjogren's syndrome. They will send me to be knocked out to remove teeth. I just got dental insurance through Medicare C & through my wife work. I was told I'd need implants bc I can't produce enough saliva to hold in dentures. My eyes also suffer a lot from the sjogren's. I was hoping to try to get Medicaid to cover it under medically necessary. I started I had autoimmune disease which left me w permanent heart and lung damage and third stage renal failure at age 14 ( lm 45 now). I have 3 caps that fell off (I ate them lol) & just this year my front tooth broke a lil past the gum line. I'm constantly biting my tongue or cheek, a few of my teeth are very sharp and I have a constant sore in my mouth on top of I'm always getting thrush. The front tooth that's broken is infected. I can feel the pocket of infection sometimes feeling like it may be near my sinuses, which my autoimmune disease has affected
