This concerns me a great deal. I have no desire to lose my teef. Of those that are having the dental concerns, how many of you are taking calcium suplements? My dietician instructed me to take 2 of these giant calcium citrate pills along with my chewable vitamins. ( http://www.easypricematch.com/viewit...dproduct=35723 ). If this isn't enough I need to see about further suplementation. So far I've been able to drink milk so maybe I'll start on a regular regimen of that. Or starting on the steamed broccoli a little early. Or worst case scenario I'll have to find more/better calcium supplements.

My mom has horrible teeth(at least the two she has left are horrible) and I am deathly afraid of being in similar circumstances.

HELP!!!

My surgeon does regular bone density testing along with the routing blood tests to make sure my bones are staying the same. I had one pre op and one at my 4 month post op check.
