Any one ever have a tooth extracted and not have HBO dives? I went to see an oral surgeon today about a tooth that has a big area of decay and it will end up needing to be extracted but he mentioned doing something called prp, platelet rich Plasma therapy instead of HBO dives.

Anyone ever heard of this?
