Teeth falling out!!!

So now my teeth are coming loose!!! I noticed two of my teeth were wobbly, popped to the dentist and they have had to refer me to the hospital for treatment as I have had radiotherapy to the neck area and this can affect the teeth. It can also lead to a very nasty disease called Osteoradionecrosis which is, apparently, an extremely serious complication. Anyway, the front one at the bottom (where it can be seen by one and all) has fallen out already. Have the appointment tomorrow (Thursday 8th) so watch this space!! Still full of aches and pains however, I am due for my 3rd infusion of Zoledronic Acid in October, I have these every 6 months to protect my bones. I did notice in February I was getting more achey and was due for this infusion in April, well, the same is happening again so will need to mention to Oncologist.
