I have found that alot of the nerves in my teeth have had to be removed which is a painful process. Could this be atributed to CSV or am I just trying to pass the buck?

As you probably know, John Mills is a retired dentist. If he doesn't know the answer then I'm sure not many will.

It can affect the nerves going to your teeth particularly in the upper jaw. You can get terrible toothache, but as a rule, does not last long. If it becomes a big problem go and see your consultant it can suggest your Vasculitis is not fully under control.
