I had a few teeth removed prior to the start of my radiation and chemo treatments. My teeth afterwards were very loose and became so crooked. I had problems eating, even talking with my teeth in such bad condition. Due to so my dental problems, I had my teeth removed with the 20 HBO before and 10 after. It prevents ostioradionecrosis (sp).
I had 50 HBO way before anything to do with my teeth. After my second round of OC, I wasnt healing. I had a piece of my cheek removed about the size of a quarter. My doc had me do HBO to help me recover.
It really works. I was no longer anemic, fatigued, and my arthritis was cured. Do some research about HBO and you will find it has many uses. I ended up having tubes put in my ears since I had so much trouble clearing my ears due to trismus. It takes up alot of time, I was in the tank 2 hrs per day. For me, HBO was a miracle. (everybody is different, its not an alternative cure but is necessary for post radiation dental extractions)
