I have had epicoectomy surgery numerous times on my lower tooth. In each instance, after a year or so, the numbness is back - which I believe is a symptom of another infection. I am fearful of having this addressed or not, as I have had a total knee replacement,in the past years, and any dental infection poses the threat of infection to this knee. If ever this becomes infected it is a difficult situation, requiring the replacement to be removed, left out for a minimum of 3 months, and then re-inserted. You can understand my concern.
What are my options?
