Hi. I had squamous cell cancer removed from the floor of my mouth in November 2019. I also had 10 lower teeth removed. After surgery I had 30 days of radiation. In June they discovered one of the brackets they had put in to hold the fibula bone in my mouth had a crack in it it They had to replace it on July 10th. I am back on soft food diet It has pushed back teeth replacement. The good news is desire to eat regular food is finally returning. The bad news is I can’t eat it. How do teeth impact eating and swallowing? How long can I expect What I will have for taste buds to come all the way back? I only have 4 teeth on the bottom. 3 on one side 1 on the other.
