H.D.
Give your local Orthodontist a call, if they won't help you look up the nearest school of dentistry. I would also talk to your family doctor, have your husband's blood pressure checked, I would again investigate the idea that he had a stroke.
If you aren't getting answers it doesn't mean there isn't one. If you have to get second opinions, do so! Remember that doctors are people too, they don't always know everything so be willing to keep asking the questions. Good luck! I am sorry you are going through this right now.
