I'm sorry to hear this news about Willow & will be praying for her. I would not wait to take her to the Specialist as whatever is going on with her jaw bone could get much worse & may be one of those things that with treatment of some kind, could stop the damage. She may just need some temporary calcium supplement but better safe then sorry. Not that this is the same But when my Gracie was still with me, she got her foot stuck in the grate in her cage while at the groomer & broke her foot, vet casted her but wanted to re x-ray in 2 days because she was about 16 yrs & oldies often need calcium supplement . I started giving her brocolli 3 times a day & in 2 days took her back for her x-ray & the vet was shocked so much so that he called in the other 2 vets in the office to see Gracies x-rays, I had no Idea what all the fuss was about till he showed me the x-ray & you could clearly see the new bone growth where the break was. He said it had to be from the brocolli as it is one of the foods with the highest calcium content. SO maybe Miss Willow needs more brocolli.
