Thanks.

Well since I've been vaping, 2 teeth have cracked and broke. (not related to gums or absessed tooth). PG or age/big fillings/etc?

And btw, I'd not worry about being taken. Your referring doc gets no benefit for sending you away from his office and to a specialist's due to concern. Please do update with the perio's diagnosis. Take care!

Went to the perio. He started right away. Got all sides done, some stitching, one bone graft, and a tooth pulled . Clean bill of health.
What I can't believe is after 25 years of absolute pain free dental , he was not so pain free. I kept saying stop, then he give me more novacaine-4-5 times!!! Maybe he got a bad batch. Anyway, 3k later, I have been scraped, filed, picked, cut, stitched, grafted..... I'm going to have to take out a loan for the dental work now.

Bridges falling out and teeth cracking are related to age of the work done, amount of stress that they must bear, fillings that are too big/should have been crowned, untreated recurrent decay, etc.
No way from vaping.

Seminolewind, I feel your pain with the loan damage. And sorry to hear about your lack of profound anesthesia. That couldn't have been fun. Glad you're doing better now.
Take care.

Now am confused i made another thread with concerns of having a blood troat in the morning but now as i read here am starting to think it's from my gums. I mean i wa aware that i been vaping hard sometimes at night before i go to sleep and seems like my troat use to hurt use to be a bit lazy to drink liquids :-p.. But that's not the case i only seem to have blood in my troat. You know like when brush your teeth you have a bunch of slimed blood and need to bring up the mucas to spit it out. But druing the day i tedn to try and do the same thing and everything seems okay.. So am wondering if it's my gums that tends to bleed at night and stay in my troat till i get up

Ps: My gums do bleed when i brush my teeth also. But didn't think i would do so while alseep

Warrlord, you should see a dentist and a physician to determine the source of your bleeding. There is only such much that I can diagnose from a vague online description of symptoms. Please do yourself a favor and get this checked. You will feel better about it.
