hi i had a consultation with the orthodontist where he took a full x ray of my mouth/teeth. He noticed a white area around my molar at the root of my tooth. He stated this is not infection or tumor as this would turn up dark area. he stated that this is a rare condition where my tooth is literally growing continuously in my jaw bone. he is going to refeer me to a med oral specialist. I am worried as he said more than likely it will need to be removed and worried will braces work now and I dont have over crowding on my lower jaw.Anyone else had the same problem?
