Tooth decay gone

In the summer of 2019, I was having pain in a tooth that had recently been repaired. I went to the dentist, who took X-rays and informed me that all of my remaining teeth needed to be removed and bridges, implants, or dentures inserted. The X-rays confirmed this diagnosis. 

I did not accept this as the final word. I knew from my study of Christian Science that it wasn’t matter that needed to be fixed but thought that needed to be corrected and uplifted. I called a Christian Science practitioner to pray with me, and she immediately assured me that in reality I was not a mortal with tooth problems, but an idea of God—whole and complete. She helped me to see that man is not subject to decay and that substance is spiritual, not material. The pain left as I hung up the phone. 

I returned to the dentist’s office several days later, but this time I met with a different dentist, who took another set of X-rays. The new X-rays indicated that no teeth needed to be removed and that artificial replacement teeth were not needed! The second dentist could not believe that days earlier there had been clear evidence of decay—and now there was none. It had simply vanished. She said there was no logical explanation for the complete reversal of what had seemed to be a serious dental problem.
