    We are all affected by the treatment differently. Some of us can go right back to work right after treatment while others take years to heal. I also have problems with my teeth but I am 12 years passed my first treatment and can’t open my Jaw to see a dentists. On the saliva it takes a very long time for it come back, I had to use Stoppers 4 at night for many years. I am ok now as 60% of my saliva glands are working but that took many many years.
