Before I had my radiation I had one dentist say pull all teeth make dentures, went had second opinion they pull 6 teeth. At that time I very thankfull. Now I thinking I should of had them all pulled.
It now 2 years later I just went to the dentist
who said I should see oral surgen to have 5 teeth removed.
Well he wants me to go have this hyperbaric Oxgen Chamber treatment for 4 week 2 hrs aday I sit in this thing, then have the teeth extracted go back and sit for 2 more weeks.
They are worried about the amount of radiation I had that osteoprosis of my jaw would happen faster if they extract teeth now.
Anyone out there have any experence with this.
