Terrific to hear that Clark is doing so well.

I rarely have jaw pain these days (touch wood it stays that way!!) I used to have terrible sharp shooting pains on the left side of my jaw and face nearly everytime I opened my mouth to eat or drink anything. It would bring tears to my eyes it was that severe.

For me, time has helped and made a huge difference.
