In 2015 I was diagnosed with AML and spent 6 months having extreme chemotherapy. Now I have gum disease and face loss of teeth. Is there a connection and can I get any financial assistance for when this happens, to replace the lost teeth?

I'm sure there's a connection. Be careful regarding your options. In view of what you've been through study re implants before getting them. Some people have had problems. So sorry for all you went through.
