Thank you all for your feedback and good advice.
I watched all the YouTube videos and will give double lip embouchure, different strength reeds and all else mentioned here a try.
The teeth extraction was in the past four years and were both back teeth or near back on each side of the lower jaw. I'm really not interested in doing anything about them - implants are too expensive for me and I do not want to go through having a bridge done again at this stage of my life! The less I see of my dentist, the better!
I certainly have lost my stamina on the breathing and find myself having to breathe before phrases have ended - which isn't good of course.
Yes - I have gone down from first chair to second and/or third. And by the way, I'm 75 - maybe struggling to play but otherwise fit for my age.
