Affect the baby/childs bones? I have asked Dr's Dentists, and online 
research..even called the ADA and they will not talk to me as an the 
patient...I was born in early 60's. I am the second child born to Rh 
incompatible parents. I spent a length of time in the hospital after birth.2-3 
weeks. The only thing my mother remembers is that they were constantly 
pricking the bottoms of my feet for tests and giving me injections,and warned 
here that my bones may be weak and my teeth would be like chalk. They were. I 
was hospitialized as each tooth came in and they put a silver cap on every 
tooth. My adult teeth weren't much better but were not capped because they 
said long term it was not viable. Braces were not possible because they would 
break off. She was told to expect me to need false teeth before 16.I have 
worked hard all my life trying to save them. I am almost 50 but still have 
most of them. Since 4 I have brushed and flossed after eating, rinsed with 
floride, etc. I have spent my life in the dentists chair. My mouth has hurt 
all my life and am ready to just pull them all and get implants! I do not want 
another root cannal and crown in my mouth. Not one professional I ask about 
this has an answer. They just look at me like I am nuts say I just let my 
teeth go...Which is not the case. Can you tell me what it is called and give 
me more info on this??? PLEASE....Thank You for your TIME. I appreciate all 
that you can tell me about this. Samantha
