I had traumatic wisdoms pulled a year ago and the dentist (not all that great either) could've done a better job than what he did. i was still passing fragmented tooth and bone days after the pulling. i mixed up a vitaminc c product called "Pure Radiance" with orange juice, all for the vit c. Not only did my gums heal very nicely, but keloid scars I had for years appeared to go down significantly with the added vitamin c. What makes Pure Radiance a good product is that it has vitamin c from different really good sources like acerola and camu camu, both substances with very high levels of c.
