Have you gotten anymore info about Botox? Ive been making some progress with doing hbo, speech therapy, physical therapy and working with the therabite. My mouth opening went from 4 to 14 within the past 2 weeks (I think its milimeters). Im going for a second opinion to a oral surgeon specialist in Phila on the 23rd, to check about the type of surgery you had done to remove scar tissue. This doctor does alot of reconstruction and plastic surgery. Im going to ask him about the botox.
