Jerry,
I have a father & son team. The father is the oral surgeon and the son is the dentist. I will be put under for the procedure. I have to have a few teeth removed that I had root canals on years ago. I also have a tooth that I broke just prior to my radiation. I have a temporary filling in it. The dentist thinks I'll have to have it pulled as well. I had a pandoramic? x-ray done on my jaw. I have to meet with them again next week to finalize the plans.
John
