Played straight from the show's own feed. We do not host, copy or re-cut anybody's audio, and nothing loads until you press play.

What it is about

📌 Book your Maxillofacial Assessment: You lose a back tooth and nothing hurts. No one can see the gap, so you figure you can deal with it later.

There is no transcript here, and only the host could change that.

These are somebody else's words. Oral Surgery Answers with Dr. Juan Lopez belongs to whoever makes it, and we are not going to publish a transcript of it without being asked. Claiming the show puts that permission on the file. It is the only thing that could ever put a transcript here, we have not written one yet, and we are not promising a date.
