All the teeth that I have lost were in good condition, it was the bone loss that caused them to come out one after another! :-( Luckily I am not as young as I was, and really sympathise with those in their 20's who have the same problem.
Thanks again for your quick reply, this site is brilliant! Thanks again.
Thanks for the reply, I did have a lot of gum treatment at a London hospital I believe it was deep root cleaning and was very painful. At that time I only had receding gums, which were causing sensitivity.
I cleaned with the special brushes provided, and flossed but nothing seemed to stop the problem!

Thanks for the info on the implants, that is encouraging.
