Three years. WOW. You may want to ask your UCSF specialist if he/she knows of any prothodontists with cancer expertise closer to you. As usual, Brian is correct that root canals are usually okay. (I've had 3 post TX and did not need any HBO, etc), but I was cautioned against any extractions. As for fillings, I stayed with the specialist as he is more aware of the need for extra care in dealing with my max nuked jaw.
