"but this mom really seems to want a concrete answer on whether or not she
really has to refuse him. she understandably lost some faith in the oral
surgeons after her experience w/ the 1st one! if anyone knows for sure, i
would love to be able to at least reassure this mom one way or the other
that a course of action is truly in her child's best interest.

Hi Jacqui, well, what about the old stand-by "please show me the clinical
evidence you are using to base this decision on"?
Also, if the worst that could happen is maybe dry socket, then perhaps Mom
should weigh the benefits of continued nursing against the potential dry
socket problem.  I've never had a dry socket, how big a problem is it,
anyone?
