I did just revisit a post about Dr. Snyderman, & it looks like he does intraoral surgery. When you see him, if there’s discussion about surgery, please ask if he’s also willing to do external surgery as we have learned that the external approach provides better access to the styloids & stylohyoid ligaments so they can be removed to the greatest extent possible (at skull base & down to hyoid bone if needed). It also allows better visibility of nerves & other soft tissues to help keep them safe though many doctors now monitor nerves electronically during surgery.
Please let us know how your appointment goes. I hope you feel heard & supported @ michad.
