I had 30 "dives" Hyperbaric treatments earlier this year prior to more surgery in April for Osteroradionecrosis where they removed nearly all of my bottom teeth and replaced my lower jaw with bone from my hip.

The surgeons believe that my "new jaw" and the area where my neck was dissected again is healing alot quicker due to the HBO and that having the HBO will also be a huge advantage to me when I can get teeth implants early next year.

Besides short term blurred vision from the HBO I had no other side effects.
