My husband finished treatment in late 2007. He eventually lost almost all of his teeth due to ongoing radiation effects. He did get some special bone growth material that was injected via a surgical procedure about 3 years ago (to build up bone under his gums) and he had HBO treatments after that. He now has some implants that hold a permanent appliance/bridge. This just got completed after years of working on it at Hopkins. We're really not sure it was worth it or if bone necrosis will continue. But so far its working so it that continues it will be wonderful as he can now eat most things. But it was costly and time consuming and frustrating with lots of setbacks. I agree with Christine and Uptown that you need to wait to see how things go.
