Susan... I am one of many where CLL was not kind to our teeth. My personal experience was, the worse my bloodclabs got and the closer I got to havingbto start treatments, the more dental problems I had. In a two year span before treatments, I had six teeth extracted because of excelerated tooth decay... and most all the others were becoming much worse. Just before finishing my oral treatment, my dentist and oral surgeon concluded that compete extraction was inevitable.
Tell your dentist that you have CLL. The real concern is your platelets. I had to gave my remaing 19 teeth extracted in a hospital setting because of possible bleeding complications. Your dentist, knowing you have CLL will examine and monitor your dental care more closely.

I'm not saying you'll have the same results as I did, but be diligent.

I had a very good dentist and oral surgeon... I was lucky.
And the photo says it all. That's me outside my dentist's office after getting my new smile.

Good to know and thank you for responding to my questions. This is all new for me..

I have never been a person who bleeds. My blood clots very good. I take good care of my teeth and mouth to prevent future concerns?
