Just spoke to Dana-Farber & Brigham & Women's Hospital dental office. Dentists on staff there only see patients who are currently undergoing tx.

I asked if they referred to dentists experienced with H&N cancer and was told there is no such thing. Our general dentist thought he was sending Bob for a more or less routine extraction evaluation with an oral surgeon. Of course, we knew to contact RO. In the past, RO did not have dental referrals either.

Anyone aware of how to locate someone with experience, if an extraction is necessary? RO will set up hyperbaric therapy.

Bob is on antibiotics, the pain was never severe, and he sees a great endodontist on Monday.

Thank you,
Lottie
