Here is a video I came across and it shows the 2 ways we can have jaw problems. And there is an alternative treatment to HBOT which is good to have but no guarantee it will give you the healing you need. They are now utilizing pentroxiflline and tocopherol.

This video in on the medical technical side so my understanding of it is not complete but I think some of you folks out there in the H&N community will find information in it you will find helpful possibly.
