What can be done for teeth infected due to MRSA?

Q. My daughter is 24. She has had MRSA for over a year, and her teeth are falling apart. Her dentist has recommended dentures. She has already lost 6 teeth. DDS says teeth are “infected”. She is so young. What would you recommend?,
A. MRSA should not in itself cause tooth loss. The possibility of a comprimised immune system, sugar based medicines may be more relevant. You must find out the type of infection, then treat the cause. Rob
